The File and Folder Attributes package makes working with your file system a breeze. Get file and folder details to ensure that your bot is working on the correct file/directory. Return a list of all files contained within a folder (including hidden files and files found within subdirectories) to quickly and easily traverse through tons of files in a flash.

Note: Like all other Automation Anywhere packages - this package includes Community Support only. That said, this package has all of its code posted to our GitHub page so that users can self-support, and even make updates/modifications to the package and submit merge requests.

Version 1.1 Update: The File Attributes action has been updated to include additional fields for PDF's and Image files. For PDFs, the action will now return the height (in mm), width (in mm), and page count of the PDF document. For Image files, the action will now return the height and width of the image as measured in pixels.
