FTP node. Can see directories but when I use Path to List files, zero files show

Describe the problem/error/question

I can successfully connect to FTP and use FTP List action with / as the Path to show the 2 directories. When I then try to use the Path given to list the files that I can see are there (using say Filezilla on my desktop), zero files show up. I thought perhaps it was due to their names being hashed and .x12 extension so I through all sorts of files in the directory and simply will not show them now matter how I seem to try and format the path or even link it as a duplicate FTP List node i.e. first list node is path / to return directories then next FTP list node uses the previous step json.data

I have yet to see a single folder shown. I’ve tried this in Workato (limited runs due to license though) and it worked perfectly i.e. could see them etc using same credentials so not a weird permission issue given access path either I don’t think.

What is the error message (if any)?

Edit your post. we can’t see what you attached because it’s in a code block.

It’s also better if you can copy and paste the workflow so that we can see what’s happening and provide you with better help.
