Hi,
is there a way to export (download) files which are uploaded in my blob cube into to a specific directory trough a procedure?
Regards,
Jörn
Hi Jörn Constabel,
thanks for your request.
For sure it is possible to extract BLOB Cubes with BOARD Procedures:
When you execute the procedure, your BLOB Cube is extracted into your board\dataset\dbname folder.
The look of your extract is like this:
The txt file shows the destination of the blob files itself. They are all placed into subfodler "BLOBs".
To move your files to the real destination e.g. you can use server side command and windows copy statement or something similar.
Hope it helps.

Hello,
Looks like it's not possible to use data flow to copy a BLOB cube from one version to another in a budget app for instance.
Following the extract done above, it's there a way to take back the files with a data reader. I saw that we have all the entities in the export but I am not sure if it's possible to fill in the BLOB cube with the the information in the txt file?
Thank you and best regards
Marcel
Dear Marcel Bila,
for sure it´s possible to load BLOB Cubes using ASCII Datareaders.
How to do this you find here: Blob InfoCubes
Hope it helps

Hi @Shailesh , the wrong link was posted above. The old manual version that @Alexander Kappes was referencing is here: Blob InfoCubes
And for Board 14, we have update documentation on Blob InfoCubes, which you can read here:
