Using file://<machinename>/c$/ with ui.FileManager

I’ve been trying to use the load(“file://Machinename/c$”) with file manager. I’m getting Not allowed to load local resource. Is this possible to do with filemanager?

Hello @magazinebrute,

I’ve been trying to use the load(“file://Machinename/c$”) with file manager. I’m getting Not allowed to load local resource. Is this possible to do with filemanager?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to query for local files using this method. Your select browser specifically blocks local file access for security reasons. As a workaround, you could try and deploy a local server, which would allow you to work with local files.
