We're hosting an application on Appian cloud with VPN SQL server instance to our servers. The end-user of the application is our customer and they are required to provide SQL data views to application processes on a periodic basis. Their SQL views are not exposed via VPN and are not available to us through their firewall, so they need to deliver a back-up or snapshot of data that we then bring into process somehow. We're looking for ideas to read this data when it is not available for direct access. A thought is to have them upload a view or even a csv thru a task form into the knowledge center and then have process read and save the data into a data store. Any good ideas out there? Thanks!...

Sql Server has native capabilities to export data in CSV format. You can capitalize on this functionality and ask the client to follow a standard routine. Since this is machine generated document, the possibility of the format changing will be less (unless the underlying schema changes)
