Just a heads up, file drops can be tricky if the timing varies!

Wait, can you really automate without a consistent naming convention?

I agree, but I think a Scheduled Starting Source is also a must.

They should definitely use %%BASEFILENAME_FROM_FILEDROP%% for consistency.

I definitely recall that scheduled sources are usually for fixed times, so maybe they won't work well with this setup.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like the base filename from the trigger could be relevant, but I’m not confident.

I think we might need to use the file drop starting source since the file naming is inconsistent.

I remember something about using file drop sources for automation, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best option here.

This question is testing our understanding of how eDiscovery and document review works. I'm going to carefully consider each option and try to eliminate the ones that don't seem to fully capture the "Reviewable Items" concept. I think I've got a good strategy for tackling this type of question.

This seems like a good opportunity to apply my knowledge of the FTD LINA engine. I'll carefully read through the options and select the two that I'm most confident are correct.

I am torn between B and C; it sounds like they could be using a VPN to connect different branches… I'm not entirely sure though.

I'm picturing the poor IT guy at Northern Trail Outfitters, just sitting there refreshing the FTP site, waiting for the file to show up. 'Come on, file, don't be late for your own party!'

The IT guy must be tired of manually checking for the file every night. Automation is definitely needed.

They could set up a script to search for the file based on certain keywords in the file name.

They should set up a scheduled task to check for the file at a specific time every night.

Why would you ever want to use the 'BASEFILENAME_FROM_TRIGGER' option? That just sounds like a recipe for confusion and potential errors. File drop is where it's at!

I'm not sure about the 'Scheduled Starting Source' option. Wouldn't that just run the risk of the file not being there yet? The file drop seems like the more reliable choice.

Yeah, I think using the file drop starting source would ensure that the file is there before trying to import it.

The file drop starting source option seems like the way to go here. This way, the automation can just grab the file as soon as it's available, without having to worry about a specific time or naming convention.
