Repository File Chooser Configuration

Allows choosing single or multiple files, workflows or directories from a remote mountpoint. Outputs a table with the selected files.

Options

Label: A descriptive label that will be shown in the dialog.
Description: Some lines of description that will be shown for instance in the node description of the component exposing a dialog.
Parameter Name: Parameter identifier for external parameterization (e.g. batch execution). This will also be the name of the exported flow variable.
Selection Types: Set the items that are going to be available for selection.
Output selected item type: Enabling this option will append a second column to the output table containing the type of the selected items. Also a second flow variable containing the type of the first selected item is created. Possible values are DATA, WORKFLOW and DIRECTORY.
Valid File Extensions: A list of file extensions that is used as filter in the file browser (not only the one in the "Default File" option but also in a remote file browser), e.g. ".csv,.csv.gz" will filter for files ending with ".csv" or ".csv.gz". Leave empty to accept any file.
Allow multiple selection: Option to enable or disable the selection of multiple items. If unchecked only one item can be selected.
Use default mount id of target: Setting this option will query the mount id of the server the node is running on for creating absolute paths to the selected items. If unchecked a custom mount id can be provided.
Custom mount id: A custom mount id to be included in the absolute paths to the selected items.
Root Path: An optional root path to only make items contained within this given directory available for selection.
Default File: The default file to be output during configure and design time. If the path to the default file is present remotely as well, the file will be preselected in the view.
