Hi Carlos,
To parse your text file, you can follow the next three steps:
1. Upload your text file with the "Input Filename" widget;
2. Use the BinaryData extension to convert the binary content into text format;
3. Use the Text extension to parse your file.
I hope it helps!

José Martins

Hi Natanael,
you should look for the Upload widget.
