Hi,
I have a fabric pipeline where i want to get a content of the file and name of the file in alakehouse table. But I am not able to get the file name in a seperate column of the table . (My file has only one column)
I used getMetadata and Copydata activity but still it is not working . When i do the mapping with dynamic content it looks as below
Thanks,

Hi @PBILover,
Please use the script function
@{concat('INSERT INTO MetaData VALUES (GETDATE(), ''', variables('Path'), ''')')}

Thanks for the reply @v-saisrao-msft : I tried to get the filename in a variable, which worked fine but the mapping part is not working , when i used a mapping->add mapping and assign any dynamic content it is turning as shown in above screenshot. I dont see 2 columns .

Hi @PBILover,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Forum Community.
Please use the set variable activity, store the metadata ( which is file name ) to a variabl and use this variable in copy data activity to insert data into a table.
Thank you.
