Hello fellow,
I have a file with the extension (.7z)
BackUpReport.7z
To extract this file 7 zip is required. It is in my system. I have performed this manually but now I want to make it automated.
How can we do this in Uipath?
I tried with Extract Unzip/Zip activity but not working
Thanks in advanced
Best Regards,
Vrushali
Hi @Vrushali_Gave ,
Please check Extract files from .rar file - #4 by moenk
It should solve your issue
Best regards,
Marius
@Marius_Puscasu Thank you for your response but It’s not worked for me
@Vrushali_Gave - Please check here for extract commands…
Hi @Vrushali_Gave - I tried this in my command line and it worked…
C:>“C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe” x C:\Users\giris\Documents\UiPath\Studio\7Zip\Test.7z -oC:\Users\giris\Documents\UiPath\Studio\7Zip
You can open the command line and use type into to try this…
I am still looking at how to use the same using ‘Start Process’ activity…
@prasath17 Can we do this in invoke code activity? If yes then how can we do this?
@Vrushali_Gave - Here you go…
Dim exePath As String = “C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe”
Dim args As String = “e C:\Users\giris\Documents\UiPath\Studio\7Zip\Test.7z” + " -o"“C:\Users\giris\Documents\UiPath\Studio\7Zip"”"
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(exePath, args)
Before Extract
After Extract ==> Test Folder got extracted…
Update: With the same idea, I have tried using Start process, and it worked…please see below
Hope this helps…
@prasath17 I have tried both the solutions but it’s not worked for me
File is not getting extracted
@Vrushali_Gave - Please find the starter help here… 7Zip.zip (34.4 KB)
@prasath17 Have look in the below attached screenshot
I have tried but the file is not an extracting
@Vrushali_Gave - first thing I noticed was there is no space after e…
“e D” instead i am seeing “eD” …Please replace the contents carefully as I provided…
@prasath17 Yes I noticed that thing and corrected it but still not working
@Vrushali_Gave - Please share your start process screenshot…Also please confirm your 7Zip.exe file location??
@prasath17 Okay sure, I’ll share but could you please try this using D:/ drive path folder? And let me know is it working or not
@Vrushali_Gave …I dont have D drive in my laptop…so I can’t try…
I have already provided the working code for you…I guess you have to figure out what you are doing incorrect…
@prasath17 I did it using C:/ drive and it’s worked but as per requirements the folder should be in D:/ drive and its not working
@Vrushali_Gave …That’s a good news…So for the time being…Extract the output to C drive and Using Move file activity move the extracted file…
In meantime, I will research on this…
@prasath17 Okay. Thank you. I can apply this logic too but let me know if you find anything related this.
Best Regards,
Vrushali
