From FTP/SFTP

If the source link of a job is the Link to an FTP or SFTP Server, configure the source job parameters based on Table 1.

Advanced attributes are optional and not displayed by default. You can click Show Advanced Attributes to display them.

**Table 1** Parameter description
Category	Parameter	Description	Example Value
Basic parameters	Source Directory/File	Directory or file path from which data will be extracted. You can enter a maximum of 50 file paths. By default, the file paths are separated by vertical bars (\|). You can also customize a file separator. For details, see Migration of a List of Files. This parameter can be configured as a macro variable of date and time and a path name can contain multiple macro variables. When the macro variable of date and time works with a scheduled job, the incremental data can be synchronized periodically. For details, see Incremental Synchronization Using the Macro Variables of Date and Time. NOTE: If you have configured a macro variable of date and time and schedule a CDM job through DataArts Studio DataArts Factory, the system replaces the macro variable of date and time with (Planned start time of the data development job – Offset) rather than (Actual start time of the CDM job – Offset).	/ftp/a.csv\|/ftp/b.txt
	File Format	Format in which CDM parses data. The options are as follows: CSV: Source files will be migrated to tables after being converted to CSV format. Binary: Files (even not in binary format) will be transferred directly. It is used for file copy. JSON: Source files will be migrated to tables after being converted to JSON format.	CSV
	JSON Type	This parameter is displayed only when File Format is set to JSON. Type of a JSON object stored in a JSON file. The options are JSON object and JSON array.	JSON object
	JSON Reference Node	This parameter is used only when File Format is set to JSON and JSON Type is set to JSON Object. CDM parses the data under the JSON node. If the node's corresponding data is a JSON array, the system will extract data from the array in the same pattern. Use periods (.) to separate multi-layer nested JSON nodes.	data.list
Advanced attributes	Line Separator	Lind feed character in a file. By default, the system automatically identifies \n, \r, and \r\n. This parameter is displayed only when File Format is set to CSV.	\n
	Field Delimiter	Character used to separate fields in the file. To set the Tab key as the delimiter, set this parameter to \t. This parameter is displayed only when File Format is set to CSV.	,
	Use Quote Character	If you set this parameter to Yes, the field delimiters in the encircling symbol are regarded as a part of the string value. Currently, the default encircling symbol of CDM is ".	No
	Use RE to Separate Fields	Whether to use regular expressions to separate fields. If you set this parameter to Yes, Field Delimiter becomes invalid. This parameter is displayed only when File Format is set to CSV.	Yes
	Regular Expression	Regular expression used to separate fields. For details about regular expressions, see Regular Expressions for Separating Semi-structured Text.	^(\d.\d) (\w) \[(.)\] ([\w\.]) (\w.).
	Use First Row as Header	This parameter is displayed only when File Format is set to CSV. When you migrate a CSV file to a table, CDM writes all data to the table by default. If you set this parameter to Yes, CDM uses the first line of the CSV file as the heading line and does not write the line to the destination table.	Yes
	Encoding Type	Encoding type, for example, UTF-8 or GBK. You can set the encoding type for text files only. This parameter is invalid when File Format is set to Binary.	UTF-8
	Compression Format	This parameter is displayed only when File Format is set to CSV or JSON. The options are as follows: NONE: Files in all formats can be transferred. GZIP: Only files in gzip format can be transferred. ZIP: Only files in Zip format can be transferred. TAR.GZ: Files in TAR.GZ format are transferred.	NONE
	Compressed File Suffix	This parameter is displayed when Compression Format is not NONE. This parameter specifies the extension of the files to be decompressed. The decompression operation is performed only when the file name extension is used in a batch of files. Otherwise, files are transferred in the original format. If you enter * or leave the parameter blank, all files are decompressed.	*
	Source File Processing Method	Operation performed on source files after the job completes. No action Rename: After the job completes, the source files are renamed by appending usernames and timestamps as suffixes to the file names. Delete: After the job completes, the source files are deleted.	No action
	Start Job by Marker File	Whether to start a job by a marker file. A job is only started if there is a marker file for starting the job in the source path. If there is no marker file, the job will be suspended for a period of time specified by Suspension Period.	Yes
	Marker File	Name of the marker file for starting a job. If you specify a marker file, the migration job is executed only when the marker file exists in the source path. The marker file will not be migrated.	ok.txt
	Suspension Period	Waiting period for a marker file. If you set Start Job by Marker File to Yes but there is no marker file in the source path, the job fails when the suspension period times out. If you set this parameter to 0 and there is no marker file in the source path, the job will fail immediately. Unit: second	10
	File Separator	File separator. If you enter multiple file paths in Source Directory/Files, CDM uses the file separator to identify files. The default value is \|.	\|
	Filter Type	Only paths or files that meet the filtering conditions are transferred. The options are None, Wildcard, and Regex. For details, see Incremental File Migration.	None
	Directory Filter	If you set Filter Type to Wildcard, enter a wildcard character to filter paths. The paths that meet the filtering condition are migrated. You can configure multiple paths separated by commas (,). NOTE: If you have configured a macro variable of date and time and schedule a CDM job through DataArts Studio DataArts Factory, the system replaces the macro variable of date and time with (Planned start time of the data development job – Offset) rather than (Actual start time of the CDM job – Offset).	input,out
	File Filter	If you set Filter Type to Wildcard, you can enter a wildcard character to search for files in a specified path. The files that meet the search criteria are migrated. You can configure multiple files separated by commas (,). NOTE: If you have configured a macro variable of date and time and schedule a CDM job through DataArts Studio DataArts Factory, the system replaces the macro variable of date and time with (Planned start time of the data development job – Offset) rather than (Actual start time of the CDM job – Offset).	*.csv
	Time Filter	If you select Yes, files are transferred based on their modification time.	Yes
	Minimum Timestamp	If you set Filter Type to Time Filter, and specify a point in time for this parameter, only the files modified after the specified time are transferred. The time format must be yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss. This parameter can be set to a macro variable of date and time. For example, ${timestamp(dateformat(yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,-90,DAY))} indicates that only files generated within the latest 90 days are migrated. NOTE: If you have configured a macro variable of date and time and schedule a CDM job through DataArts Studio DataArts Factory, the system replaces the macro variable of date and time with (Planned start time of the data development job – Offset) rather than (Actual start time of the CDM job – Offset).	2019-07-01 00:00:00
	Maximum Timestamp	If you set Filter Type to Time Filter, and specify a point in time for this parameter, only the files modified before the specified time are transferred. The time format must be yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss. This parameter can be set to a macro variable of date and time. For example, ${timestamp(dateformat(yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss))} indicates that only the files whose modification time is earlier than the current time are migrated. NOTE: If you have configured a macro variable of date and time and schedule a CDM job through DataArts Studio DataArts Factory, the system replaces the macro variable of date and time with (Planned start time of the data development job – Offset) rather than (Actual start time of the CDM job – Offset).	2019-07-30 00:00:00
	Encryption	If the source data is encrypted, CDM can decrypt the data before exporting it. Select whether to decrypt the source data and select a decryption algorithm. The options are as follows: NONE: Export data without decrypting it. AES-256-GCM: The AES 256-bit encryption algorithm is used to encrypt data. Currently, only the AES-256-GCM (NoPadding) encryption algorithm is supported. This parameter is used for encryption at the migration destination and decryption at the migration source. For details, see Encryption and Decryption During File Migration.	AES-256-GCM
	Disregard Non-existent Path or File	If this is set to Yes, the job can be successfully executed even if the source path does not exist.	No
	DEK	This parameter is displayed only when Encryption is set to AES-256-GCM. The key consists of 64 hexadecimal numbers and must be the same as the DEK configured during encryption. If the decryption and encryption keys are inconsistent, the system does not report an exception, but the decrypted data is incorrect.	DD0AE00DFECD78BF051BCFDA25BD4E320DB0A7AC75A1F3FC3D3C56A457DCDC1B
	IV	This parameter is displayed only when Encryption is set to AES-256-GCM. The initialization vector consists of 32 hexadecimal numbers and must be the same as the IV configured during encryption. If the initialization vectors are inconsistent, the system does not report an exception, but the decrypted data is incorrect.	5C91687BA886EDCD12ACBC3FF19A3C3F
	MD5 File Extension	This parameter is displayed only when File Format is set to Binary. This parameter is used to check whether the files extracted by CDM are consistent with source files. For details, see MD5 Verification.	.md5
