SSIS - Delete files from specified folder using Script Task in SQL Server

Dec 30 2011 8:13AM by Paresh Prajapati

Earlier we have seen for the files deletion using File System Task in SSIS. We have used it with Foreach Loop Container. Used a variable to hold file names which are passed from earlier stage one by one and then finally used with File System Task to delete it.

Now i am going to use Script Task to delete all files from specified folder. Here i have added script to get each files from specified folder and then delete them as you can see in the following steps. Lets start to follow them.

1. Drag and drop Script Task.

2. Open script editor from the properties.

3. Apply attached script in editor and save it.

Please note here we need to import system.IO namespace.

4. Turn on final step and run package. Files get deleted.

You can also find script code here,

--// You need to apply below one line in "namespaces" region.
using System.IO;

--//You need to apply below lines inplace of  // TODO: Add your code here

 string directoryPath = @"E:\TestFolder";
            string[] oldFiles = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(directoryPath, "*.txt");
            foreach (string currFile in oldFiles)
            {
                FileInfo currFileInfo = new FileInfo(currFile);
                currFileInfo.Delete();
              
            }

Hope you liked this post. Stay tuned for more.
