  • Drag a "zipFile, unZipFile" step to the canvas. 
  • Connect the dots between the “Start” step and “unZipFile” steps, as shown above.  
  • Define a variable or a global to store the result. 
  • Click the “ZipFile” step to configure its properties. Provide the source file or folder path information on the FlowWright server. Click the Save button. Note: Click the "AI Predict" button for the Copilot to add new process steps that match your process description.

  • Save the process definition, create a process instance, and then execute it. Render the completed process instance to view the step properties. The step should have extracted the files to the destination folder.

 

Definition Sample:

You may download the sample definition(s) from the link here and later import them (drag-and-drop) to your FlowWright Process Definition (XML file) or Form Definition (HTML file) page.

Note: Please verify and complete the process steps for any missing configurations, such as file path references and database connections, after import. Then, save the definition to confirm the changes.
