Hi!
Suppose your filename starts with the word “Sample” and the extension of the file is “.txt”
To read all the files which match the above configuration, you have to use Wildcard
You can use the below wildcard to achieve the above scenario.
Sample.+.txt
In the same way, you can change the wildcard value as per your requirement.
