Hi All,

I have a requirement where Appian RPA needs to pull an excel file from computer's local folder and pass that to a process model as parameter. Could you please help me on how Appian RPA can pull file from local folder and also if it is possible to pass the file as parameter to a process model?

Thanks,

Sudip

Are you trying to just get the filepath or the file itself to pass? If you want the filepath, you can use the "List the contents of a folder" action and specify the the name of the file using the Name Filter in the configuration, save this into a variable. 

You can use the Start Process action in RPA to pass the filepath into the process model.
