  • Using version 4.1.0. When using the (SFTP) Receive File smart service, if a file path is invalid/file doesn't exist the plugin is still creating an empty file with the Document Name in the Destination Folder. The output Error and Success are set but New Document is blank (even though empty doc created). Destination Document input is not being used in this scenario.
