Extraction of a file from HTTP request

[Youssef_OUAJDI1 (Youssef OUAJDI)]

on my studio web i added an activity of http request the result is a binary file, i saved the result in a variable Response attachement of type IlocalResource, but i cannot retrieve it even if i know the path .
i tried the path exist it return no file/folder exist with the expression RsponseAttachement.LocalPath
i want just to upload the file on storage bucket or on a local folder in my computer.

ResponseAttachement : FileSystemLocalItem { Context=null, CreationDate=[01/01/1601 00:00:00], FullName=“attachment_3b612f3a-51b4-4a85-b4d2-240868125e58.bin”, IconUri=null, ID=“/tmp/5485e960-63e7-4797-a513-5dc3cc2241fd/Input/attachment_3b612f3a-51b4-4a85-b4d2-240868125e58.bin”, IsFolder=false, IsResolved=false, LastModifiedDate=[01/01/1601 00:00:00], LocalPath=“/tmp/5485e960-63e7-4797-a513-5dc3cc2241fd/Input/attachment_3b612f3a-51b4-4a85-b4d2-240868125e58.bin”, Metadata=Dictionary<string, string>(0) { }, MimeType=null }

Hi @Youssef_OUAJDI1

Refer below post please, should help you. Please Verify your resource path

Saving file using HTTP request

The ResourcePath is literally a full path to the file you want to download (including the filename). Thus, you simply have to construct it like this: "Directory" + Now.ToString(“dd MMMM_yyyy”) + "\yourFileName.pdf" Paste this into the ResourcePath and it will save the file in the correct directory.

Hello Sonalia ;

i already checked this topic unfortuantly in studio web their is no ResourcePath. i can give a name to my file but i can’t do anyhing else, all the variables are generated by web studio.

Best Regards

Hi @Youssef_OUAJDI1

On your second screenshot, the path exist should be checking for a file, not for a folder.

But either way, you can refer to the file exactly with that .LocalPath modifier, allowing you to upload the file to the storage bucket.

You can also use the O365 or GSuite activities to upload the file to cloud, in case you have a sync from those set up on your local machine.

Hi @Youssef_OUAJDI1

Could you please verify the value provided under file?

Response.localpath refers to path where that file is present and also includes the file name?

Also are you referring to right variable?

In your very first screenshot, variable is responseattachment.local path

In here you are using responseattachment 1.localpath

[Youssef_OUAJDI1 (Youssef OUAJDI)]

Hello Sonalia;
thank for your help i didn t understand your point; but this is my variable

i tried the path.getFileName(ResponseAtachement.localPath) but have same error .
Best Regards.

[sonaliaggarwal47 (Sonali Aggarwal)]

@Youssef_OUAJDI1

When you use path exists on below variable do you get the success?

Responseattachment.localpath

Can you specify the reference in path exists activity?

And then use that variable in storage bucket to upload the file?

[sonaliaggarwal47 (Sonali Aggarwal)]

@Youssef_OUAJDI1

Also could you confirm if orchestrator folder name is dev only?

And your storage bucket name is correct?

[Youssef_OUAJDI1 (Youssef OUAJDI)]

Hello;
the folder bucket and bucket Name is from a drop down menu from the activity .
the path exist return true

i tried the reference from the path exist but still have same error.
Best regards.

@Youssef_OUAJDI1

Can you try “\” like this with double quotes in where to upload property?

[Youssef_OUAJDI1 (Youssef OUAJDI)]

Upload Storage File 1: Invalid blob file path ‘""’ Error code: 3103

using the expression editor i have another error

[sonaliaggarwal47 (Sonali Aggarwal)]

@Youssef_OUAJDI1

Can you provide the only file name there?

Destination needs to be the name of the file in storage bucket not \

[Youssef_OUAJDI1 (Youssef OUAJDI)]

same error ;

[sonaliaggarwal47 (Sonali Aggarwal)]

Sorry I meant under where to upload property, only provide the file name.. under file , full path was fine only

[Youssef_OUAJDI1 (Youssef OUAJDI)]

that was the solution
