Archive Source Files

Determines if the source files are moved to the defined archive container, once processing is completed.

The file move applies to files read from a file-based source connection. It is generated when the files are landed as binary files or the extraction is a pushdown extraction, and the solution has an archive connection of an Azure storage type (Blob Storage, Data Lake Storage, or File Storage).

When to Change This Setting

Keep the default Y to retain processed source files in the archive container. Disable it when source files should remain in the source location or be removed by Delete Source Files instead.
