    Correct, still LA. GA coming soon, so the course will give you a chance to get ahead of the game. 

  • Does the Smart Connector enable access to SMB Fileshares? (read/write)

      SIC has a couple of integration options for connections back to on-prem resources.  One is the ability to tunnel specific endpoints (Web-APIs, SFTP servers, etc.) back to OneStream allowing them to be interfaced in a very similar manner to VPN.    This would not work with SMB file shares; however, SIC ALSO provides the ability to retrieve data from files contained in SMB shares using remotely invoked BR's that are available on the SIC Gateway (running in the customer's environment).  A simple example of this is illustrated below using a Smart Integration Function and would work for file sizes up to ~500-600mb in size.  Would something like this work for your scenario?

      namespace OneStream.BusinessRule.SmartIntegrationFunction.TestFileRead
      {
        public class MainClass
        {
          public byte[] RunOperation(string year)
          {
            string fname = @"\\someshare\path\hw_" + year + ".csv";
            byte[] buffer = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(fname);
            return buffer;
          }
        }
      }

      Hi Frank,

      I oversaw the development of this content but I'm not an implementation consultant. I don't recall the eLearning dealing with SMB Fileshares so please feel free to ask a question to the wider community.
