How to add timestamp dynamically in file name?

[shin861231]

Hello, 

I am now setting file name in FTP adapter (receiver) for an integration flow.

I have learnt from this blog (https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-blogs-by-members/sap-cpi-dynamic-file-name-adding-cpi-messag...) that I could set ${date:now:yyyyMMddHHmmss} in 

the file name so that the timestamp can be dynamically generated.

However, I want the timestamp to be more detailed, therefore I tried ${date:now:yyyyMMddHHmmssfffffffff}.

(By the way, when it's ${date:now:yyyyMMddHHmmss}, it went perfectly well.)

Could anyone please kindly advise on this?

Thank you.

Hello Experts,

Thank you for all the replies.

I have solved this problem by setting the variable as 

${date:now:yyyyMMddHHmmss.SSS}.txt

instead of ${date:now:yyyyMMddHHmmssffffff}.txt

and it worked.

Just as your references. 🙂

please use content modifier before sftp step. first, create exchangeProperty with concatenate values ${date} and constant 'ffffff', than use this value in sftp step

sorry for my bad english 😉
