Hi,

Can we create an automation to open a folder / import on a file based on user input?

If the user enters the folder name / the file name, - is there a workflow to open the folder and import the files

Hi @Vigneswaran 

 

You will need to create an analytic app in order to achieve this. I would recommend checking out this interactive lesson.
