I want to create an Analystical application where User user can select number of Files he/she wants to input.

Context, Number of input files keep changing in day to day basis. User wants to first select number of files he wants to input and then slect those files. 

How can we achieve the same in Alteryx. Please help.

 

Please note - Format of Template of each input file is same,

Hi @SangramPisat , try out this chained app and let me know if it solves your problem. First app will let you choose the folder and second app will give you the list of files to dynamically select the files which you want to read

We have File Browse tool but only can browse one file at a time.

There is another tool Folder browse, so you need to put your files in one folder.
