I have few csv files that I need to read from zip folders. Currently I am getting error "File not found ". Is there any way we can read files from zip folder using Alteryx.

Hi @prakash-shetty 

 

This workflow it is a worth try for you, it has a example with .csv inside a zip file. 

 

Get the name of the files inside any .zip - Alteryx Community

If the provided answer helped you to solve the problem/was correct, please accept it as a solution :)

 

Thanks.

Hi @prakash-shetty,

 

In attachement, you can find a package where there are Zip folder and alteryx workflow in which I read file data from this Zip folder.

 

Is it what you want to do ?

 

Let me know if there is any issue.

Hello Emmanuel_G - Thanks for your response !!! In sample that you shared I believe it is for retrieving excel files from zip folder. I need to extract csv files from zip folder. When we select CSV files in Dynamic input folder it provides different configuration as compare to excel files. Do you have any other option or I am misinterpreting solution provided by you.

So if I understand, you want to do the same test but with csv files ?
