To process the files as they are received while minimizing rework, Northern Trail Outfitters should: • B. Replace the Schedule with File Drop and use a filename pattern. Using a File Drop automation with a filename pattern allows the automation to trigger whenever a new file matching the pattern is dropped into the SFTP. This approach ensures that each file is processed as soon as it is received, without the need for manual intervention or scheduling multiple automations.

The schedule needs to change from daily to 8 hours as its known. File drop is for times when the schedule is not known and is random. So answer is C and not B.

I think it’s A. Question states they “historically received a bulk data file daily”. Past tense. So the thing to chance would be fFile Drop
