Get Folder Info

UiPath.Box.Activities.Folder.GetFolderInfo

The Get Folder Info activity uses the Box Get folder information API to retrieve specific file information from a specified folder (Folder Id).

After retrieving the information, the activity outputs the details of the folder in BoxFolder object (Box Folder)

How it works

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.

  1. Complete the Setup steps.
  2. Add the Box Scope activity to your project.
  3. Add an activity or run an external process that outputs a Folder.Id value (e.g., Create Folder, Search for Content, etc.).
  4. Add the Get File Info activity inside the Box Scope activity.
  5. Enter a value for the Input property.
  6. Create and enter a BoxFolder variable for the Output properties.
    • Your input property values are sent in the Get folder information API operation request.
    • The operation returns the 'BoxFolder' values to your output property variables.
