Folder Upload on Knime Webportal

[r_jain]

Hi,

I want the option for the user to select a folder from local machine and all the files within it get consolidated and i can run the workflow.
It is simple in the desktop version with either the files in folder option or the *.xlsx but for server , the file upload widget doesn’t work as it doesn’t recognize the folder selection.

How can i get this done?

Thanks in advance,
Rajat

Request: Select multiple files or directories from File Upload widget

Hi. I’m using KNIME AP 4.3 and developing a workflow for the web portal.

Local File Browser Configuration In local

Because the server doesn’t support folder upload functionality, now i am trying to ensure that configuration does the job atleast in the local machine. However the local file browser configuration also seems to support single file selection and not multiple files. The moment i select the folder and pass it to an excel reader, it doesn’t allow. Is there any way this can be achieved? The goal is that the user doesn’t get to see the logic and they only choose the folder in their local. TIA
