I have several zipped folders with a different name. I would like to unpack all zipped folders in corresponding new folders. Therefore I chose the activity “get file info”. Where I saved the output in a variable (type: System.IO.FileInfo) After that I used the for each activity. However there is an error message when i use the variable (Main.xaml: BC30512: Option Strict On disallows implicit conversions from ‘FileInfo’ to ‘IEnumerable’. The selected value is incompatible with the property type.)
Hi,
this is issue with the type argument.
i believe Get file info would give single file information so it is not list.
we will not use for iteration.
Ok, so I should use the assign Activity, define a variable with directory.getfile()
Hi @regi0001 ,
Yes. New Directoryinfo(folderpath).Tolist() also works
Welcome to the community
You need to use for eqch file in folder and give the folder path and filter as "*.zip"
Inside loop currentfile.fullname will give the fullpath of eqch zip file…use unzip activity with it
Hope this helps
Cheers
Hi @regi0001
You can use for each file in a folder with filter of “*.zip” & use Extract/Unzip Files activity to extract the Zip files & put it in one folder this will iterate through all the zip files
Hope this helps ![]()
