Working with filelists

In this section, you will learn about the result filelist, which is a list of files in memory. The purpose of having a result filelist is to apply some operation on the whole set of files in a single step. The kind of operation you can apply ranges from copying the list of files to a new location, to sending the files attached in an email.

In this section, you will learn the ways PDI offers to add or remove files from that custom list, and then you will see a couple of use cases where you can use it.
