The idea of the submit button is to start or continue a process.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why not simply do the parsing in that model. Then add the second interface to this process as well and enable chaining to forward the user directly to that interface.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: UploadFile And Read Value in interface from a process</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/87336?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 27 Oct 2021 07:43:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:4df7f9e7-75f5-47b3-bb60-43c1a4b0428a</guid><dc:creator>Carmine Mele</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;The start process is not for the file upload but for parsing part after the upload, but if i understand well you suggest to pass with submit to another interface and then after parsing loopback to the original UI?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: UploadFile And Read Value in interface from a process</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/87317?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 26 Oct 2021 16:27:21 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:6dd0710d-3d7c-4444-81ea-1d24bf44b882</guid><dc:creator>Stefan Helzle</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;A file upload MUST go through a form submit cycle before you can use it. This is how it works and there is no way to changed that currently. A startProcess will also not help.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So if you want to work with values from a file, enable chaining to the next interface and do whatever you want to do.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
