I am having a folder of txt files that I wants to convert into .edi

Hi @ajindal ,

You can use Copy file activity

From : your text file path
To : c:\arivu\filename.edi

Copy File (uipath.com)

we assume that Electronic Data Interchange is meant, right?

In general a changing of the filetype extension is not doing a conversion. So we would recommend to check:

  • what is the content of the txt file? Already edi data or data which needs to be mapped
    when data is to be mapped:
  • get a definition of the edi structure details
  • get a definition of the mapping rules

Hi @ajindal ,

below syntax will return all the files folder
Directory.GetFiles("Folder path","*.txt")
