jitterbit load source dynamically

Question

I'm trying to do a jitterbit formatting to be executed automatically, but I need to load several files from diferent directories as source file, anyone know if this is possible, because I've been searching but seems like the source is always fixed

Answer 1

Use a script task before the source and set a variable like $filedirectory and use that the source task.

Then in the source you can use [filedirectory] for the directory path. If you want the test connection to still work provide a default value like [filedirectory{\\server\share}]

Use regular expressions in the source file name or something like *.xml if you want to process multiple files.
