Hi there, I want to build kind of a business middleware that will help me handle some administrative tasks.
Basically I want to aggregate products from all our vendors into one single application. Our vendors upload a csv to a ftp server, every morning at around 4am a new file gets uploaded.
Now what should I do? is there a way to serve the csv directly? Without the need to store that into a database? We only read from those csv files. The data will be converted and put into another system via rest on demand (to fill quotes and orders)
I hope you understand my question (not a native speaker) 🙂

Hello @.krm42 if you expose this data from any API, you can build a data provider for refine app and it will do the work.

Is there something like the csv tool from retool?

Hello @.krm42, you can check here https://refine.dev/docs/advanced-tutorials/import-export/csv-import/
CSV Import | refine
You can easily import CSV files for any resource by using refine's customizable useImport hook, optionally with
component. useImport hook returns the necessary props for component.
