Upload

This action uploads a file from your table to a website.

If you select this option, your TaskBot can upload the file to a website (e.g. invoice PDF file to your accounting tool or a picture sent via a DM).

Trigger upload before Upload logic kicks in

First, you need to trigger upload before this block. This means that you have to 'guide' your TaskBot to the actual upload first. In most cases, you would first have to click on an upload button by using its selector in the building block Click Web Element, as shown below.

How to add a file to the table or variable

There are four ways to add a file that you want your TaskBot to upload.

• You can paste a url to where the file is stored. Example url: https://wallpaperaccess.com/full/2656.jpg. The TaskBot will fetch the file from the url during its run.

• Make TaskBot auto-save a file url to a table or variable by using the building block: Save File.

• Make TaskBot auto-save an image file url to a table or variable by selecting the action Save image in Save Web Element building block.

• You can manually upload a file from your computer. For this, you need to create a file column. To create a file column, open your table or variables dialog and click on the button + Add file column (in variables that option is called Add file variable). Then simply upload your file manually, as shown below.

If there is no file inside the column you are referencing to, then the TaskBot won't be able to upload anything and you will see an error message that no file was detected in your TaskBot run reports (Using Run Reports).
