    Hi Naveen_Yedla333

     

    This is a fairly clear error message, and it even includes a recommended workaround - I love to see the Fabric error messages getting better. 

     

    That error means the pipeline is trying to treat your HTTP source like a "seekable" file (able to jump around inside it), but most HTTP endpoints don’t allow that. A direct copy won’t work because the service needs to re-read parts of the file to process it.


    You’ll need to stage the file before loading it:

    1. Create a first Copy Activity that downloads the ZIP file from HTTP and writes it to a staging location like a  Lakehouse.

    2. Create a second Copy Activity that reads the staged file and loads it into your target (using the same settings you already had).
