Hi @VS_9760165 ,

Mention  Path : /

This will list all the files with path. So by using listed path you can get the required files.

@Ashritha ,

My file is at SystemRepository on Cloud instance of TWX so i can access directly without path ? or what should be path ? i had attached snaps whatever i had...and now i am getting empty result after executing getfilelisting like below ...

Hello @VS_9760165,

You can execute service GetFileListingWithLinks  to get the path.

Hello @VS_9760165 ,

You would upload the csv file in the Repo Thing that you just created , I am pasting my example:

After that you can use the service GetFileListingWithLinks to get info about the file path or list of files it contains :

Let me know if this helps you,

Thank you,
