Hi,
I have set-up the my SFTP files, and they all work (I think). My error states: Error transferring data: Remote file not found
I know what tool this is, a DYNAMIC RENAME TOOL, so can't workout the issue. I use the same set-up to connect SFTP files on three other connections and the error is a Remote File Not found to only one.
What does this mean? And how can I resolve this?
I looked at: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Knowledge-Base/File-Transfer-Protocol-FTP-Download...
These confirmed the steps I have already taken are correct, but not sure what stage is incorrect.
Cheers
Solved! Go to Solution.

Are you trying to download a file from an SFTP or send a file up to an SFTP? If you are trying to download a file from the SFTP, your error most likely is due to a typo or extra space in the URL that you are trying to pull from. Can you check to confirm that the path is exactly as it should be?

Thanks BrandonB for the reply.
The error message is connected to 1 out of three macros.
The first macro gets the data from the SFTP
The second (the one causing the error is where the calculations take place)
The third is moving results back to the STFP.
This error takes place in the 2nd macro:
- Record #1: Tool #5: Error transferring data: Remote file not found (Tool Id: 35)
Tool 5 is the rename tool, where I rename the column names (after skipping the first few columns)
I have looked at the data in the first and last macro counting lengths of cells to make sure there is no extra space or error in spelling. This all looks correct to me.
What would you recommend I check next?
Thanks millions

Can you confirm that the rename tool has ID 35? You should be able to click on the price tag looking icon to confirm. The reason that I ask is that an error transferring data, remote file not found normally wouldn't be related to a dynamic rename tool.

Thanks Brandon, yes I have found out that you read the error right to left.
And you were right, the error was within the detail. Thanks
