I am in need on a file trigger based on a file loaded to an FTP directory. The file trigger works great when the file is local or on a network volume, but is unable to be used on an FTP volume.

I would like to be able to watch the FTP directory for a new file or a file of a specific name (*.pdf for example), validate that it is still growing (or being uploaded), and then downloading the file when it has stopped growing for a set amount of time (10 seconds for example).

Is this possible in the product, or does it require triggering an external process to validate if the file continues to be uploaded. It is my impression that files on FTP are not locked as they are in a typical network environment.

This is not possible right now but we intend to add this functionality very soon. I am moving this request to "Feature requests" forum and we will get back to you when we have something to test.
