    Any Action can allow users to import a file then parse it?

    Hi,

    is there any action in Method that can take a file (import from users) then parse it to get the content? I have a case that users would like to import data from excel file, then put it in a grid. Is there any action that can import file and any parse function or file I/O functin? thanks.

    Hi Alex,

    We don't have an action for this, but you can use our Import / Export Tool to import data from a CSV file. Take a look at this Help Center article. You could give your users access to the API and the tables they need to use through it, and create a screen with a grid to show the information they're importing.

    Hope this helps.
