Hello,
How is it possible to read a file and then delete it?
At present I am using a copy activity to get the file name but I do not want to put the file anywhere and so no need for the sink to be set (But sink tab is required in copy activity)
Then I know to use the delete activity but not sure what o do with the sink of the copy activity?
Thank you

    Hey,
    You can use a get meta data activity to get the filename and its details.
    And then use Delete activity to delete that file.
