For example, one file has the first half of the year, and now I want to append the second half without manually merging the files in Excel ahead of time.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Mr. Starke, are the files you would like to append local to your computer (i.e. are they excel files you are uploading to Trifacta) or are they in a database/hadoop file system?
I'm working with a bunch of CSV files that are currently on my desktop. I originally started a flow with just one of the files, but now I realize that I should probably combine them together somehow before doing all of my calculations in Wrangler. Can I make this work with just uploading the files from my desktop? Or should I store them in Hadoop? I'm not sure what would be best or if this is even possible.
My company owns the enterprise edition of Wrangler, if that makes a difference.
btw, just call me Toni :)
You got it, Toni!
There's two ways you can approach this.
Option 1:
Option 2:
Hope this helps!
Thanks so much! I think I'm going to go with option 1 for now. It seems more straightforward for the short term.
Option 2 will be great if I decide that I want to run this flow every month and not have to deal with continually adding new files into the flow manually...but I'm not there yet. Really appreciate the thorough response.
