Hi Team,
I have a used case, where an employee goes to a specific option on a website and clicks on the upload button, as we know once the upload is clicked file explorer pops up, and then he chooses a document > and clicks on submit.
I am trying to automate this so that robot can pick documents one by one and submits them.
I know clicking buttons is easy with interactive elements of the browser but once the Upload button is clicked the file explorer is opened, and I am not finding any way that robot can interact with File Explorer and selects that document from some location.
I looked at the documentation of File system action https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/20.3/rpa-8.0/modules/file-management-module.html and I cannot find anything relevant so please help.
Best,
Khaiser

Hi Khaiser,
May I know if you resolve this concern? If yes, how did you automate it? Currently stuck in uploading part since I can't record the file explorer window after clicking the choose file button. Thank you.
Hi mkhaiserullaPersonal & olarsen12 ,
Once you click on upload, file explorer is opened and there recording is not possible. But our cursor will be active in the filename field of file explorer. If you have the file path, you can use keyboard actions to add the file path and then click on enter using keyboard actions. I tried in this way and its working for me
