Hello Community!

Back again with another video tutorial. We will be covering the File Uploader and File Downloader controls in the Modern day UiPath VB Apps.

But first, we will do things the hard way! :point_up: :neutral_face:

We upload a file, and see if we can get hold of its auto-generated file name when it was saved in the Storage bucket. And once we do, we try to download the file without using the File Downloader control.

You will see that you have learned something new and handy in the process!

In the later part of the video, we will go the easy way and download a file using the File Downloader control.

Regardless, you will get a feel of how to use basic functions and expressions of the new VB powered UiPath Apps! :slightly_smiling_face: :+1:

The track covers the following:

00:00 - Intro
00:18 - PROLOGUE
01:25 - File Controls - Classic Vs VB Apps
03:49 - “AppsFile” - The File Variable
06:15 - The App Overview
08:24 - The File Uploader Demo
11:21 - Getting the Autogenerated File Name
27:10 - The File Downloader Demo
30:53 - EPILOGUE (and an FYI)

Cheers!

ERRATA: The blurb in the video that questions if there is a bug in the File Uploader has been later confirmed to be a result of code being removed from the File added event handler of the File Uploader control. Therefore, this error blurb is not valid! Apologies for the error.
