Hi,

I have a case where users need to upload data from local shares (eg. SharePoint) or local desktop drives to data lake or data repository like Redshift. Is this possible in Matillion ETL or Data Loader?

&nbsp;

Regards

Yes, it is surely possible to extract data from local shares. We have implemented a solution using Matillion ETL to upload data from Microsoft Sharepoint using Data Transfer component.
