Productivity Activities
Last updated Nov 21, 2024
DEPRECATEDFind Files And Folders
UiPath.MicrosoftOffice365.Activities.Files.FindFilesAndFolders
Uses the Microsoft Graph Search items and Shared files APIs to find the files, metadata, and/or contents that match the values of your search parameters (Query). By default, this activity searches your connected OneDrive. You have the option to change your search location to a SharePoint site (DriveName and SiteURL).
After performing the search, the activity returns the matching
DriveItem objects (First and Results) that you
can use as input variables in subsequent activities; almost all of the Excel and Files
activities require this as an input variable.
This activity is limited to 200 results. If you're working with more files, use the For Each File/Folder activity.
Find Files and Folders doesn't support the
Sites.Selected
application permission.
Scopes
This activity requires the following scopes:
- Sites.Read.All
OR
- Sites.ReadWrite.All
Properties
Common
- DisplayName - The display
name of the activity. This property supports
Stringvariables and string formatted values.
Input
- Query - Defines the free
text search phrase for the files or folders to retrieve. If left blank, the root
folder's contents are returned. For a complete list of the supported query
parameters, see the drive item Properties in
the Microsoft API documentation. This property supports
Stringvariables and string formatted values. - Subfolder - (Optional) The
path of a subfolder in which to search (e.g. SomeFolder or
SomeFolder/Another/OneMore). If left blank. the root folder is searched. This
property supports
Stringvariables and string formatted values.
Options
-
Account - The ID or User Principal Name for the user who owns the OneDrive. This parameter must be set for ApplicationIDandSecret and ApplicationIDAndCertificate authentication types.
Misc
- Private - If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level. This field supports Boolean values.
Output
- First - The first file or
folder matching the specified query. This field supports only
DriveItemvariables. Required if you plan to use the output data in subsequent activities. TheDriveItemcontains information about the file including its name, size, type, etc., that you can use in subsequent activities. - Results - All files and
folders matching the query returned as an array of DriveItems. DriveItems
contain info such as filename, type, size, ID, etc., and can be used in
subsequent activities. When using the Results
DriveItemvariable in other activities, specify the item in the array that you want to use (e.g., myFiles(0)).
Sharepoint
- Drive Name - The name of
the drive within OneDrive or SharePoint searched for the indicated files or
folders. If this drive exists within SharePoint, Site Url must be
specified. If left empty, the search is carried out in the default drive
(typically "Documents") of the SharePoint site specified in the Site Url
field. This property supports
Stringvariables and string formatted values. - Site Url - The URL of the
SharePoint site searched for the indicated files or folders. Required only when
searching in SharePoint. As an example, if you want to search in your SharePoint
site's documents, your site URL could be
"https://uipath.sharepoint.com/sites/Quickstart" and your Drive
Name would be "Documents". This property supports
Stringvariables and string formatted values.
The following steps and message sequence diagram is an example of how the activity works from design time (i.e., the activity dependencies and input/output properties) to run time.
- Complete the steps.
- Add the Microsoft Office 365 Scope activity to your project.
- Add the Find Files And Folders activity inside the Microsoft Office 365 Scope activity.
- Enter values for the Input properties.
- Create and enter a
DriveItemandDriveItem[]variables for the Output properties. -
Run the activity.
- Your input property values are sent to the SearchItems API.
-
The API returns the
DriveItemandDriveItem[]values to your output property variable.
