Introduction
What is File Connector?
A file connector is a software tool that facilitates the transfer, synchronization, and management of files between different systems, applications, or storage solutions. It ensures seamless data flow, allowing professionals to integrate and automate workflows involving various file types and sources. Currently supported file types include .txt, pdf, .docx, .pptx, .xlsx, .csv, .md, .mdx, .conf, .log, .json, .tsv, .xml, .yml, .yaml, .eml, .epub, and finally .zip files (containing supported file types).
