Get File Lock Info

Activity for thing lock information for a specified file in Box

UiPath.Box.Activities.File.GetFileLockInfo

The Get File Lock Info activity uses the Box Get file information API to the lock information for a specified file (File ID).

After retrieving the lock information, the activity outputs a BoxFileLock (File Lock) object that includes the lock properties.

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 File.Id value (e.g., Upload File, Search for Content, etc.).
  4. Add the Get File Lock Info activity inside the Box Scope activity.
  5. Enter a value for the Input property.
  6. Create and enter a BoxFileLock variable for the Output property.
    • Your input property values are sent in the Get file information API operation request.

    • The operation returns the BoxFileLock value to your output property variable.

Properties​

Input​
