Delete Files via FTP

Description

Delete Files via FTP removes files from a remote server using the FTP protocol. Use this process entry when your process needs to clean up files on a remote host after they have been downloaded and processed — for example, removing source data files from an FTP server to prevent duplicate processing. It supports wildcard-based file selection and configurable success conditions.
