Embed an Input File in a Workflow

[grsomer]

Hi!

I have built an app that requires users to select 2 input files to bring into the workflow. One input file needs to be changed manually by the user everyday, but the other is a file that is used everyday (it stays the same). The file is quite large, so I can't use a Text Input for this. 

I am wondering if there is anyway to keep this file embedded in the workflow so that the end user does not have to re-select it everyday? The goal is to simplify the end user experience as much as possible. 

Thanks in advance!

Hey @grsomer 

If you send the file as a packaged workbook you have the option to "manage workflow assets" in which you can include this as part of the workflow.  Options --> Export Workflow

If you are loading it to gallery the same principle applies.
