Fixed Width File In AWS S3

I am working with a new vendor and they require a fixed width (.txt) file which I have not done before. We are working on getting the FTP connection up and running but I have a couple of questions on how to do this in the interim.

  1. Can I do this via S3? I see a Fixed Width File Type option, but it requires I then pick a Format and none of the options are relevant to this file.
  2. When I make the FTP connection (hopefully in the next week or so), what are my options for producing this file?

Thanks in advance for any help on this!

Hi Dave - I have replied to your email.

Thanks Sreenesh. I just replied to your email! Thanks again!

@sreeneshc @daveguderian can you post the answer here for others?

@tylerlamparter - I have been working with @sreeneshc and @chrisbidleman on this. Unfortunately, there isn’t anything native that I can do on this outside of a JavaScript, so this will require professional services from Celigo to create a file definition. Just wanted to close the loop on where this landed!
