Feature example: File upload

This Actor demonstrates how the file upload feature works within an Apify Actor. It is designed to help creators and users understand how to upload files, store them, and leverage this functionality in their automation workflows.

  • This is a nicer UI for the string input and does not necessarily add functionality beyond what our key-value store currently supports.

What does this actor do?

This Actor serves as a practical example of the file upload capability within Apify Actors. Users can upload files such as PDF, CSV, or JSON directly into the Actor input. The uploaded files are stored in a key-value store, either the default unnamed store or a user specified named store. This feature enables more flexible and powerful automation workflows for both developers and end users.

How it works

  1. Upload a file:
    • In the Actor input section, use the file upload widget to select a file from your device. Supported file types include PDF, CSV, JSON, and more.
  2. Choose storage:
    • By default, files are stored in an unnamed key-value store.
      • If a user stores a file in an unnamed key-value store, the file will remain in storage according to the users storage retention settings
    • Optionally, specify a named key-value store to store files indefinitely.
  3. Run the Actor:
    • Click “Run” to process your file.
  4. View results:
    • Check the output to see how your file was handled and stored.
