The Generic files configuration

The Generic files configuration requires a .zip file of arbitrary files that are needed for custom configurations beyond the scope of the provided configuration types. The .zip file contents are extracted into the directory /home/aceuser/generic. You can't access this location directly, but other configurations or logic in integration flows can reference the contents of the .zip file at this location.

You can define multiple generic files configurations for one integration runtime. The maximum recommended size of a .zip file for a configuration is approximately 660 KB.

To configure your integration with the files that it needs, create a generic files configuration on the Configurations tab of the Manage page and import your files in a .zip file. For more information, see Providing credentials and secrets in configurations.
The generic files configuration shows that a .zip file called custom_config.zip has been uploaded.
