Upon checking, the administrator realizes the files are placed in the bucket using a nested folder structure that the connector is not parsing. How should the administrator resolve this?

Accepted Answer

Update the file path and prefix settings in the Data Stream configuration to include wildcard or subfolder patterns.. Cloud storage connectors require proper path and file pattern configurations (such as wildcard matching) to locate and ingest files within nested folders.

Answer

Move all files to the root directory of the Google Cloud Storage bucket and restart the Salesforce CRM connector.
