Hi Team
We notice that the SFTP single file download appears to have some issues when downloading small files, we are using v2.0.0
When downloading files (using 'receive File Over SFTP') it seems that the file size is set to 0 for some reason.In Appian, it shows as '<1kb' but the contents are still there (checked by downloading the file and opening outside of appian)
With some trial & error I found out that this happens for files below ~10kb size. (CSV files in our case)
In our setup, this impacts the process, because this file needs to be uploaded to a sharepoint, and that Smart Service depends on the filesize metadata, rendering the uploaded file corrupt.
Please let me know if you need more information reproducing this issue.
Which Receive node are you using? The one that you provide credentials in secure credentials store or directly in the node?
Hi Mike
We're using the Receive node with the External System Key (credential store), in combination with a private key file.
