Browsing file paths in Perspective

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to browse local/gateway file paths in perspective? I know system.file does not work, and we don’t need to upload or import files, just need to locate the files and retrieve their file paths without doing manual searching on the OS. It would be nice to be able to simply browse and return a file path on a system. Is this even possible or are there any workarounds to this?

Best,
Roger

No, not possible - due to browser security limitations. Imagine if any website you visit could snoop around your local filesystem, unsolicited :slight_smile:
