UiPath Apps-File Picker & Storage Buckets - Part 02 | A Practical File Upload App

Hello Community! Happy 2022!

The Part 02 video of the UiPath Apps-File Picker Series has dropped on the #rpavanguard channel!

For better context, please do watch the Part 01 video here: UiPath Apps-File Picker & Storage Buckets - Part 01 | The Basics - YouTube

  1. We begin Part 02 by revisiting the Vanilla App we created in Part 01 of this video series to take a closer look at how it behaves
  2. Based on that, we address list out the current capabilities of the File Picker-Storage Bucket integration as it’s offered today
  3. We use these capabilities to enhance the Vanilla App considerably beyond its original capabilities
  4. From the perspective of an App consumer (who is not necessarily the App builder), these practical enhancements gives the power & flexibility to the App consumer to manage their files in a more practical manner
  5. Finally, we do a walk-through of how these enhancements were integrated into the Vanilla App to turn it into a Practical File Upload App

  1. 00:31 - Revisit the Vanilla App for a closer look at its natural behavior
