Hi ?scar, Hope you are doing well. I played around with the FTPClient actor for a little while and was able to get it to work. I've attached a sample workflow that you can use as an example. The example uses the PUT function of FTPClient, but you can easily modify it to use GET as well. If you need more information on the FTPClient, simply right click it and hover over the documentation context menu item and select view documentation. The documentation explains mostly all of what you need to know to work with FTPClient.
A couple of things to note which weren't immediately clear: - The input to FTPClient should come from a String Constant actor and not FileReader or anything like that. The documentation is a bit vague but FTPClient is looking for the filepath and not the file contents itself. - When editing the parameters of FTPClient, use PUT and GET for operation and ASC and BIN for mode. The documentation explains in greater detail what these are but they are case sensitive for the actor. It would be good, and not too hard, to allow for lowercase characters too. - Make sure your file exists exactly as you have stated in the path. One of the easiest ways to get the "invalid command" result is to have the actor think your file doesn't exist if you provided the file path incorrectly. One last thing important thing to note is that when FTPClient does upload or download the file, the code doesn't set the url to broadcast properly. Once that is done, it should work properly. I experimented with this a bit and it's actually a pretty easy fix but it might be better to contact the author themselves and allow them to fix it. Hope that helps, Faraaz On Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 9:45 AM, ?scar Jos? Silva Cruz < chocolat_white at hotmail.com> wrote: > I am a newbie with this software.
