BOT users are often required to access different physical and network shared file paths for various file I/O operations, especially when working with MS Excel, CSV or PDF files. For these shared directories and sub-directories access permissions can be defined by the IT administrators through Group Policies.Usually, business requirements stipulate that the BOT process is required to access file paths, to read or write files from/to the source/destination address respectively.Still, many of these BOT processes fail during development or when migrated to the test/production servers as the file paths access permissions are not set up as expected.The FilePathAccessValidator workflow is developed using a Windows PowerShell script. The inbuilt Invoke PowerShell activity from UiPath executes the PowerShell script to query Windows Folder object and list user permission details.As input you need to add the below file paths:<ol><li>read access permission details</li><li>save the CSV file summary output.</li></ol>Developers can read the permission details from the CSV file and tailor the workflow.In the attached workflow, its usage is also illustrated with a hypothetical use case to query and print the user’s permission details in logs.
