How to get file path of selected file of file upoload component in perspective

how to get file path of selected file of ‘file upload’ component in perspective

Thanks in advance…

Browsers don’t supply the full path, presumably for security reasons. (Historically, at least some versions of IE did.) Not delivering the path is mandatory with current web standards. Even within the browser javascript:

https://www.w3.org/TR/file-upload/#file-attrs

Theoretically, Ignition’s Desktop edition could add a path attribute to that API. Don’t hold your breath waiting for it.

Providing the internal path of a file to any application asking for it would be a pretty big security flaw.
