• Dataset Url - The URL of the dataset where the file should be uploaded to. For instance, you can type https://aicentercom/j123/invoices in the Advanced Editor. Once public, it is visible in the Dataset detail page.
• API Key - The API Key of the dataset where the file should be uploaded to. Once public, it is visible in the Dataset detail page.
• Path into dataset - Allows you to specify the internal path within the dataset where you want to upload your file.
• File - The local path of the file you want to upload.

Properties panel

Common

• ContinueOnError - Specifies if the automation should continue even when the activity throws an error. This field only supports Boolean values (True, False). The default value is False. As a result, if the field is blank and an error is thrown, the execution of the project stops. If the value is set to True, the execution of the project continues regardless of any error.
  Note: If this activity is included in Try Catch and the value of the ContinueOnError property is True, no error is caught when the project is executed.
• DisplayName - The display name of the activity. This field supports only String variables.

Input

• API Key - The API Key of the dataset where the file should be uploaded to. This field supports only String variables
• Connection mode - The desired type of connection (Robot or Endpoint)
  • Robot - Upload by selecting project and dataset.
  • Endpoint - Upload to a dataset exposed through an endpoint.
• DatasetPath - The folder path within the dataset you want to use with this activity. This field supports only String variables.
• DatasetUrl - The URL of the dataset where the file should be uploaded to. This field supports only String variables.
• FileName - Specifies a new name for the file name when uploaded to the storage. If this field is left empty, the default file name is used. This field supports only String variables.
• LocalFilePath - The full path of the local file that you want to upload to the storage. This field supports only String variables.

Misc

• Private - If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level.

Option

• UniqueName - Selecting this box automatically renames the file and gives it a unique name. The format used for the new name is <FileNameWithoutExtension>-<RobotType>-<RobotId>-<epoch>.<extension>. By default, this check box is cleared.

Output

• FileName - The file name that was used to save the file in storage, stored in a String variable. This field supports only strings and String variables.
• Headers - The headers returned by the ML Skill request.
• StatusCode - The Status Code returned by the ML Skill request, stored in an Int32 variable. This field supports only Int32 variables.
