如何从我上传到文件夹的转换中访问文件？

Question

I uploaded an image file into a folder in Foundry, and I want to use it as an input to a Transform. It looks like it's stored as some kind of resource in a service called Blobster, how can I access this file and use it?

Answer 1

When you drag and drop a file into a folder without making a dataset to hold it first , this puts the file into a different service (Blobster) than the one that serves the files to your Transform. As such, you would have to talk to that separate service in order to use its contents in your Transform.

Instead, I'd recommend you upload the file into a dataset , by making an empty dataset first, then dragging and dropping the file into the dataset. Once it's inside the dataset, then you can use it as a standard input to a Transform without any extra work. You'll simply access the file the same as you would any other file input.
