How are you going to instruct the user to click on it, i mean the picture uploader first? Do i need to use an image for the picture uploader that says "upload your file"? is that how its done?
You can use the placeholder setting in the picture uploader's property window or add a separate text element outside the uploader with your instruction.
Thanks for the video. It comes handy as I explore working with files capabilities for my web app. Would you have any recommendations for building a file management like functionality in with Bubble? Was trying to find some templates or guidelines video, but most of things are about choosing the right storage and not building the functionality I need to organize a collaborative access to those files once someone uploads them. I thought there could be easy ways of creating Google Drive or OneDrive clones
Can I search for a file in the file manager by using a workflow or something? I'm looking to find a way to upload a file (public) and then make it private cuz it will have sensitive data.
There isn't a way to search the file manager directly, but if you save files to database records, then you can get to them through database searches. Because of this, you'll want to use privacy rules to protect files. Every time a file is uploaded, you can "attach" it to a record. Privacy rules help you restrict access to not just a record, but also optionally to that record's "attached files."
Thanks a lot for the video! I wonder how you take care of scanning the uploaded files for viruses. Is this an oob feature? How about .zip files and so on?
Neither are out of the box, but both possible with integrations. Look for a file scanning service that offers an API and use API Connector to integrate. The plugin marketplace currently has many plugins to help you work with zip files, so I'd take a look at those.

Thank you for sharing this information!
You're very welcome, Chris! Glad it resonated 🙌
Another video, thanks. Anyone have any experience with integrating to Onedrive?
