Hi there,
I badly need a file upload control component!
Cheers.

We have a template that demonstrates how to accept a file from an experience page -

Not quite the same as a new component in an Input Controls Block but you could use this template to accept a file either from a standalone experience page, or you could adapt it to use in a Custom HTML Block in a dashboard.

Very useful thanks. I am guessing if I have an endpoint that triggers a workflow (like Python) I will still have the problem that I can’t wait for completion right?
