Download file from IBM B2B File Gateway using Logic App

Question

I am using SFTP-SSH connector to connect to a third party vendor's IBM B2B filegateway.
I can successfully post files to their SFTP.

But when I tried to download the files, it is complaining with a 404 error!
I can see the files using the "list Files in the Folder" action. In my next step, I am iterating though each items and tries to get file content using "Get file content using path". Here I am getting 404 error and the logs shows the entire path to the file I am trying to download.

Very much appreciated the possible solution!

Hi @Balaji G

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! Thanks for posting the question.

The issue is caused by some default settings on your SFTP server side. You can increase ExtractCount to at least 2 if the files are small (no chunking). Otherwise, it will need to be more than the number of chunking: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/message-extractable-count-set-1-default

There are some scenarios where the extractable count is not something that can be changed at your server-side then unfortunately the scenario will not work.

If you are using any of the below SFTP servers then the connectors currently don't support them.

• IBM DataPower
• MessageWay
• OpenText Secure MFT
• OpenText GXS
