This is detailed in the topic dedicated to the [List Storage Files](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/docs/list-storage-files) activity, but you can also check out the example below for some common use cases. ### Example Suppose you have a storage bucket containing the following files: ![docs image](https://dev-assets.cms.uipath.com/assets/images/orchestrator/orchestrator-227411-98095f0c.webp) * If you want to search for all files with a certain extension, such as .jpg files, you need to enter the following in the **Search** field: `*.jpg`. The search results will be `doc1.jpg` and `doc2.jpg`. * If you want to search for a file whose name contains a certain character or character sequence, such as `voi`, you need to enter the following in the **Search** field: `*voi*`. The search result will be `invoice1.pdf`. * If you want to search for a file whose name begins with a certain character or character sequence, such as `u`, you need to enter the following in the **Search** field: `u*`.
