Load Text Files

Each text-based file is loaded into into a new table cell (1 file per row). The file content will be placed in String column.

Options

Select files
Use the 'Browse...' and 'Add from history' buttons to add all the files to be included in the table. Alternatively, a flow variable can be specified, containing one or more filenames separated by ';'. The latest added file(s) will be selected. If no files are highlighted in the 'Selected files' box, then the 'Browse...' button opens a new file browser window in the default location; otherwise, the file browser opens in the last highlighted file's location.
Select file encoding
Select the file encoding. 'Guess' will attempt to assign it based on the connectin property of the URL, the content-type, and the Byte-Order Mark (BOM). UTF-8 will be used if no other encoding is identified
Include paths in output table
Include the full file path and URLs as columns in the output table
