Guidelines for TIBCO Cloud™ Integration - Flogo®

TCI does not provide a persistent file store and the below guidelines need to be followed.

  • The files are temporary and the application developer needs to ensure that the files written are removed as soon as processed. If the app is scaled down/re-pushed, the file system will be wiped out.

  • The flow that processes the file with the File Poller trigger, needs to a part of the same app that performs the other file operations. Multiple apps cannot share the files.

  • The space available for the files is limited.
