Hi Experts,

I wanted to build workflow where user can select the input file before running the flow. The screens shot shows the sample of the WF where  each input file have separate data preparation approach.

Hi @pokhan27 ,

 

You can provide user option to select input tool by using file browse tool. Below interactive lesson should be of help.

Hi @pokhan27 

 

To do this you will need to use the interface tools, there is a tool named File browse add this to the input data tools you wish to make interactive.
