Snap type:

Write

Description:

This Snap reads a binary data stream from the input view and writes it to a specified file destination. Possible file destinations include: SLDB, HTTP, S3, FTP, SFTP, FTPS, or HDFS. If File permissions for the file are provided, the Snap set those permissions to the file.

Expected upstream Snaps: Any Snap with a binary output view can be connected upstream, such as CSV Formatter, JSON Formatter, XML Formatter, or File Reader.
Expected downstream Snaps: Downstream Snap is optional. Any Snap with a document input view can be connected downstream.
Expected input: Any binary data stream
Expected output: The output view for this Snap is optional. If an output view is open and the file write action is successful, the output view provides a document with information on the filename, result, and original data. An example is:

{
        "filename": "ftp://ftp.Snaplogic.com/home/qatest/user_manual.pdf",
        "result": "overwritten",
        "original": {
            "content-type" : "application/json"
        }
    }

The value of the "result" field can be "overwritten", "created", "ignored", or "appended". The value "ignored" indicates that the Snap did not overwrite the existing file because the value of the File action property is "IGNORE".

Prerequisites:

IAM Roles for Amazon EC2

The 'IAM_CREDENTIAL_FOR_S3' feature is used to access S3 files from EC2 Groundplex, without Access-key ID and Secret key in the AWS S3 account in the Snap. The IAM credential stored in the EC2 metadata is used to gain access rights to the S3 buckets. To enable this feature, set the Global properties (Key-Value parameters) and restart the JCC:
jcc.jvm_options = -DIAM_CREDENTIAL_FOR_S3=TRUE

This feature is supported in the EC2-type Groundplex only. Learn more.

Support and limitations:

Works in Ultra Pipelines.
Files uploaded to SLFS have a 100-MB per file limit.
Note

This limit does not apply when writing to external storage.

Known Issues: This Snap does not create an output file when using the input from SAS Generator Snap configured with only the DELETE SAS permission. This is not the case when the target file exists.

Account:

This Snap uses account references created on the Accounts page of SnapLogic Manager to handle access to this endpoint. This Snap supports several account types, as listed in the table below, or no account. See Configuring Binary Accounts for information on setting up accounts that work with this Snap.

Account types supported by each protocol are as follows:

Protocol	Account types
sldb	no account
s3	AWS S3, S3 Dynamic
ftp	Basic Auth
sftp	Basic Auth, SSH Auth
ftps	Basic Auth
hdfs	no account
http	no account
https	optional account
smb	SMB
file	no account
wasb	Azure Storage
wasbs	Azure Storage
gs	Google Storage
adl	Azure Data lake

The FTPS file protocol works only in explicit mode. The implicit mode is not supported.

Required settings for account types are as follows:

Account Type	Settings
Basic Auth	Username, Password
AWS S3	Access-key ID, Secret key, Server-side encryption
S3 Dynamic	Access-key ID, Secret key, Security token, Server-side encryption
SSH Auth	Username, Private key, Key Passphrase
SMB	Domain, Username, Password
Azure Storage	Account name, Primary access key
Google Storage	Approval prompt, Application scope, Auto-refresh token
Azure Data Lake	Tenant ID, Access ID, Secret Key

SnapLogic automatically appends "azuredatalakestore.net" to the store name you specify when using Azure Data Lake; therefore, you do not need to add 'azuredatalakestore.net' to the URI while specifying the directory.

Views:

Input	This Snap has exactly one binary input view, where it gets the binary data to be written to the file specified in the File Name property.
Output	This Snap has at most one document output view.
Error	This Snap has at most one document error view and produces zero or more documents in the view.

Settings

Label

Required. The name for the Snap. You can modify this to be more specific, especially if you have more than one of the same Snap in your Pipeline.

File name

Required. This property specifies the URL for the destination file, which the binary data read from the input view is written to. It may start with one of the following protocols:

http:
https:
s3:
sftp:
ftp:
ftps:
hdfs:
sldb:
smb:
file: (only for use with a Groundplex)
wasb:
wasbs:
gs:
adl:

For SLDB files, if you enter:

just a file name, such as file.csv, then it writes the file to: /<org>/projects/<pipeline project>/file1.csv (where <org> is your organization name and <pipeline project> is the project where the pipeline is stored) if the pipeline is in a project other than the shared project.
shared/file1.csv, then it writes the file to: /<org>/shared/file1.csv.

The Snap can write a file to its own project directory or the shared project, and cannot write it to another project directory.

For S3, your account must have full access.
The File property can be a JavaScript expression with the "=" button pressed.
For example, if the "File" property is:
"sldb:///out_" + Date.now() + ".csv"
then the evaluated filename can be:

sldb:///out_2013-11-13T00:22:31.880Z.csv

Fields in the binary header can be also be accessed when computing a file name. For example, if a File Reader Snap was directly connected to a File Writer, you could access the "content-location" header field to get the original path to the file.

You could then compute a new file name based on the old one, for instance, to make a backup file:
$['content-location'].match('/([^/]+)$')[1] + '.backup'

For http: and https: protocols, the Snap uses http PUT method only. This property should have the syntax:

[protocol]://[host][:port]/[path]

Please note "://" is a separator between the file protocol and the rest of the URL and the host name and the port number should be between "://" and "/". If the port number is omitted, a default port for the protocol is used. The hostname and port number are omitted in the sldb and s3 protocols.

This property should be an absolute path for all protocols except sldb.

The file:/// protocol is supported only on Groundplex. In Cloudplex configurations, please use sldb or other file protocols. When using the file:/// protocol, the file access is conducted using the permissions of the user in whose name the Snaplex is running (by default Snapuser). File system access is to be used with caution, and it is the customer's own responsibility to ensure that file system is cleaned up after use.

For HDFS, if you want to be able to suggest information, use the HDFS Writer Snap.

Examples:

s3:///<S3_bucket_name>@s3.<region_name>.amazonaws.com/<path>
For region names and their details, see AWS Regions and Endpoints.
Example: s3:///mybucket@s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/test.json
sftp://ftp.snaplogic.com:22/dir/filename
smb://smb.Snaplogic.com:445/test_files/csv/input.csv
_filename (A key/value pair with "filename" key should be defined as a pipeline parameter.)
file:///D:/testFolder/ (if the Snap is executed in the Windows Groundplex and needs to access D: drive)
wasb:///snaplogic/testDir/sampl/csv (to write 'sample.csv' file into the 'testDir' folder in the 'Snaplogic' container)
gs:///mybucket/csv/test.csv (to read 'test.csv' file in the 'csv/' folder of the 'mybucket' bucket)
adl://storename/folder/filename (to read the file from a location of the storage)

Default value: [None]

When using expressions to build a file name, ensure that the resulting filename does not contain characters that are not supported by the target platform. For example, a file name that contains the special character ":" is not supported in SMB.
The format should be in the following syntax:
/<org>/projects/<project_space>/<filename>
For example:
/snaplogic/projects/Automation_Project/EmployeeList.csv
Adding a new folder in the File Name field will create a folder and write the file within that folder. Because SnapLogic does not display these folders within the SnapLogic Assets in the SnapLogic Manager, the following format should not be used and is not supported.
/<org>/projects/<project_space>/<folder_name>/<filename>

File action

Required. The action to perform if the file already exists. The available options include:

Overwrite - If Overwrite is selected, the Snap attempts to write the file without checking for the file's existence for a better performance, and the "fileAction" field will be "overwritten" in the output view data.
Append - Append is supported for file, FTP, FTPS and SFTP protocols only.
Ignore - If Ignore, it will not overwrite the file and will do nothing but write the status and file name to its output view.
Error - If Error is selected, the error displays in the Pipeline Run Log. If an error view is defined, the error will be written there as well.

In case you are selecting Append as File action, then ensure that the ‘Number of retries’ is 0 or not greater than 0
For wasb:// and wasbs:// file protocols, only the Overwrite file action is supported.

Default value: Overwrite

Write empty file

If selected, an empty file is written when the incoming binary document has empty data. If there is no incoming document at the input view of the Snap, no file is written regardless of the value of the property.

Default value: Not selected.

Write header file

The binary data stream in the input view may contain header information about the binary data in the form of a document with key-value-pair map data. If this property is checked, the Snap writes a header file whose name is generated by appending ".header" to the value of the File name property. The same header information is also included in the output view data, as shown in the "Expected output" section above, under the key "original". Note that if the header has no keys other than Content-Type or Content-Encoding, the .header file will not be written

Default value: Not selected

Validate after write

If selected, the Snap checks if the file exists after the completion of the file write. This may delay a few more seconds for the validation.

Default value: Not selected

Number of retries

Specifies the maximum number of retry attempts when the Snap fails to write. If the value is larger than 0, the Snap first stores the input data in a temporary local file before writing to the target file.

Ensure that the local drive has sufficient free disk space as large as the expected target file size.
Owing to the nature of retry mechanism, the Snap does not support the Append operation if the Number of retries is set to more than zero.

Example: 3

Minimum value: 0

Default value: 0

If the value is larger than 0, the Snap first downloads the target file into a temporary local file. If any error occurs during the download, the Snap waits for the time specified in the Retry interval and attempts to download the file again from the beginning. When the download is successful, the Snap streams the data from the temporary file to the downstream Pipeline. All temporary local files are deleted when they are no longer needed.
Ensure that the local drive has sufficient free disk space to store the temporary local file.

Retry interval (seconds)

Specifies the minimum number of seconds for which the Snap must wait before attempting recovery from a network failure.

Example: 3

Minimum value: 1

Default value: 1

File permissions for various users

File permission sets to be assigned to the file.
Note:

Supported for sftp, ftp, ftps, file, and hdfs protocols only.
FTP/FTPS servers on Windows machines may not be supported.

User type

It should be 'owner' or 'group' or 'others'. Each row can have only one user type and each user type should appear only once. Please select one from the suggested list.

Example: owner, group, others

File permissions

It can be any combination of {read, write, execute} separated by '+' character. Please select one from the suggested list.

Example: read, write, execute, read+write, read+write+execute

User type

The user type to assign the permissions. This field is case-insensitive. Suggestible options are:

owner
group
others

Specify at most one row per user type.

File permissions

Specify any combination of {read, write, execute}, separated by a plus sign (+). This field is case-insensitive. Suggestible options are:

read
write
execute
read+write
read+execute
write+execute
read+write+execute

Create directory if not present

When selected, checks if the specified directory path exists and if it does not exist, creates a new directory. This property is not supported for HTTP, HTTPS, SLDB and SMB file protocols.

Default value: Not selected

Flush interval (kB)

Flush interval in kilobytes during the file upload. The Snap can flush a given size of data output stream written to the target file server. If the value is zero, the Snap flushes in maximum frequency after each byte block is written. Larger the value is, the less frequent flushes the Snap performs. Leave the property at default -1 for no flush during the upload. This property may help if the file upload experiences an intermittent failure. However, more frequent flushes will result in a slower file upload.

Example: 100

Default value: -1

Macro lookup error: excerpt "SASURI_Name" was not found on page "File Reader" (with ID 1438844) in space "SD".

If you're experiencing issues please see our Troubleshooting Guide.

The URI of the Shared Access Storage (SAS) to be accessed. Supported SAS types are:

Service SAS on container
Service SAS on blob
Account SAS

Snap execution

Select one of the three modes in which the Snap executes. Available options are:

Validate & Execute: Performs limited execution of the Snap, and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation. Subsequently, performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime.
Execute only: Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data.
Disabled: Disables the Snap and all Snaps that are downstream from it.

Examples

For SFTP files, if you attempt to write a file into a directory where you do not have a write access right, the write operation will fail with "access denied" error. When you get an SFTP account credential, it is also important to know where your home directory is, for example,
sftp://ftp.snaplogic.com/home/mrtest for username "mrtest"
HDFS Example

For HDFS file access, please use a SnapLogic on-premises Groundplex and make sure that its instance is within the Hadoop cluster and SSH authentication has already been established. You can access HDFS files in the same way as other file protocols in File Reader and File Writer Snaps. There is no need to use any account in the Snap.

HDFS 2.4.0 is supported for the hdfs protocol.

An example for HDFS is:

hdfs://<hostname>:<port number>/<path to folder>/<filename>

If Cloudera Hadoop Namenode is installed in AWS EC2 and its hostname is "ec2-54-198-212-134.compute-1.amazonaws.com" and its port number is 8020, then you would enter:

hdfs://ec2-54-198-212-134.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8020/user/john/input/sample.csv

Example pipeline file for an sldb file write

4.25 Patch	425patches10217	23 Jun 2021	Latest	Fixed the following issues in the PGP Decrypt Snap caused due to the Snap patch 425patches9581: The Snap writes an empty document to the output view when there is an error in the Snap. It will now decrypt the document and write it to the output view only if it succeeds. The Snap fails to decrypt any non-signed encrypted file more than 500 bytes. It will now decrypt both non-signed and signed encrypted files. Removed the Project ID field from the Google Service Account, since the JSON Key already contains information about the Project ID.
4.25 Patch	425patches9581	05 May 2021	Latest	Fixed an issue with the PGP Decrypt Snap where the Snap writes an empty document to the output view when there is an error in the Snap.

In case your Pipelines use the PGP Decrypt Snap, we recommend you to NOT use this patch. Else, your Pipelines will likely fail. We're working on a fix and will be deploying a Snap patch soon.
4.25 Patch	425patches9564	18 Apr 2021	Latest	Enhanced the SFTP session in Binary Snaps to support the SFTP servers which close SFTP sessions slowly.
4.25	main9554	08 May 2021	Stable	Enhanced the S3 File Writer Snap with an ability to write S3objects with Access Control List (ACL) details in a single API call. In the 4.23 release, the S3 File Writer Snap used to write an S3 file and then set ACL if the ACL property was not empty. If the file write was successful and the ACL setting failed, both the output document in the output view and the error document in the error view was displayed. This issue has been resolved in the 4.24 release by enabling the Snap to configure ACL while writing the file. Therefore, the Snap produces an error document in the error view if the ACL configuration fails, irrespective of whether the file write action passes or fails.
4.24 Patch	424patches9044	-	Latest	Enhanced the S3 File Writer to use an MD5 checksum that automatically checks for data integrity and corruption while uploading the file.
4.24 Patch	424patches9020	14 Apr 2021	Latest	Fixed the file operation error of copying large S3 files in the File Operation Snap by supporting the transfer of zero-byte S3 files while uploading a file.

4.23 Patch	423patches7795	-	Latest	Fixed an issue with File Writer Snap by skipping the validation of the SAS URI having write permission, if the SAS URI uses an access policy.
4.23 Patch	423patches7660	-	Latest	Enhanced the File Poller Snap by adding a field, Exit on first matches, which when set to true stops the Snap from executing after the first file paths matching the filter are written to the output view. If the field is not configured or is set to false (default value), then the Snap continues to poll the directory until the Polling timeout is reached.
4.23	main7430	-	Stable	Enhanced the ZipFile Write Snap to provide the ability to change the default content-type (application/octet-stream) for any file that is stored into the Azure Blob Storage (WASB: or WASBS: file protocol). Hence, the files that the ZipFile Write Snap writes into the Blob Storage can be saved with content-type asapplication/zipor any other type instead of application/octet-streamalways. You can now prevent the Snap from writing files always to Azure Blob Storage (WASB: or WASBS: file protocol) with the application/octet-stream content-type. To do so, configure a binary header property in an upstream Snap, such as JSON Formatter or Mapper, to match the file's content – application/zip, application/java-archive and so on; and pass it as the $content-type (case-sensitive) for the file.
4.22 Patch	422patches6947	-	Latest	Fixed the issue of the hanging thread in the SMB accounts.
