FAQ

Can Advanced ETL Processor upload files in OneDrive?

Yes. Advanced ETL Processor can upload files in OneDrive, then log the run inside a self-hosted workflow.

Do I need custom scripts for this cloud workflow?

No scripting is required for the routine file operation, scheduling, validation, and logging steps. Use scripts only when a rule genuinely needs custom code.

When should I not automate it yet?

Do not automate it until permissions, naming rules, archive paths, and failure handling are clear. Cloud storage repeats bad rules very efficiently.

Can I test it before buying?

Yes. Download the fully functional 30-day trial and build one small workflow first. Use a test folder before touching production files.

Can this cloud step run with other ETL tasks?

Yes. The OneDrive step can run before or after validation, transformation, database loading, report generation, archiving, and notifications.

What should be logged?

Log the account, folder or bucket, filename, size, start time, finish time, status, and exact error message. Cloud jobs without logs become archaeology.

How should permissions be configured?

Use a dedicated OneDrive account or app registration with only the permissions needed for this workflow. Shared personal credentials are usually the first thing to break.

Can failed files be handled separately?

Yes. Route failed files to an error folder, keep the original input, write the run log, and retry only after the rule or source file is fixed.
