Search Files

Estimated reading: 2 minutes

This component allows the user to search for the files within a specified directory or project folder.

Output: Returns a list of files matching the search criteria, allowing workflows to dynamically access and process files as needed.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
Path	The directory or folder path where the search should be performed.
File Type	Specifies the type of files to search for (e.g., .txt, .pdf, .xlsx).
Depth	The number of directory levels to traverse while searching.
Search Type (Global)	Indicates whether to search across the entire project storage or just the specified path.
Load Hidden	Specifies whether hidden files and folders should be included in the search.
Recursive	Specifies whether the search should include subdirectories under the specified path.
Delay Before	Specifies the time (in milliseconds) to wait before executing the activity or component.
Delay After	Specifies the time (in milliseconds) to wait after completing the activity or component execution.
Continue on Error	Determines whether the workflow should proceed if the current activity encounters an error. Stop Workflow – Immediately halts the workflow execution when an error occurs. Continue – Skips the failed activity and proceeds with the next step in the workflow. Continue Using Error Output – Allows the workflow to continue while capturing the error details as part of the output. This mode enables advanced handling scenarios where the error message or code is required for downstream actions, logging, or conditional flows.
Retry	Specifies the number of times the system should automatically retry the activity if it fails during execution.
