List Remote Files (legacy)

This node creates a list with the URIs of the files that are contained in the specified directory (the content of sub folders can be listed as well). It is also shown if the corresponding URI represents a directory or not. There are 3 filters available: file extension(s), wildcard pattern or regular expression.
The location of the directory can either be local (if no connection information is given) or on a remote server.

This legacy file handling node has been replaced by List Files/Folders and will be deprecated in the foreseeable future. For further information about the new file handling framework see the File Handling Guide.
