Specify which files to extract from the archive by providing a file mask. Provide the password that will be used to decompress encrypted archives. Decide whether the Unzip Files Action will overwrite existing files upon extraction. If necessary, it is possible to extract all files into a specified folder, rather than into the subfolders where they were originally located.
| Options | Details |
|---|---|
| Password | Provide password to extract password-protected archives. |
| Extract files | The file mask specifies which files will be extracted based on their name and extension. Multiple pipe-separated masks can be used simultaneously. Using a path is not allowed. |
| Extract files with folder structure | Specifies whether to preserve the original folder structure when extracting the archive, or to extract all archive files directly into the specified destination folder (rather than into their original subfolders). |
| Replace existing files | Specifies the behavior of the Unzip Files Action when a file being extracted from the archive has the same name as a file that already exists in the destination folder. If this option is enabled, the file in the archive is extracted over the file in the destination folder. If this option is disabled, the file that is already in the destination folder is preserved by skipping the extraction of the file with the same name from the archive. |
| Variable Wizard |  Use dynamic data input—substitute a parameter from a file, web, connected Trigger, other Actions, date and time presets, etc. |
| Mask password |  To maximize security, mask the password characters. While enabled, it is not possible to use the Variable Wizard. |
| This Action is enabled | An Action is executed only if it is enabled. Otherwise, it will be automatically skipped (completely ignored) from the Task flow. |
| Use custom display name | Rename this Action, to make a human-readable workflow that will help you to find, read, and make sense of the Task structure later. |
| Advanced fallback options | Manage the advanced fallback options—select which error types will lead to automatic execution of predefined workaround operations. |
| Log only errors | Do not log information and warning messages for this Action. It may be useful to keep the log file small and tidy on production systems. |
Note
- When the Unzip Files Action is configured to extract particular files based on any mask other than
*.* (all files), only the subfolders that actually contain at least one file matching the mask will be created. Subfolders within the archive that do not contain any file matching the specified mask will not be extracted (unless the file mask*.*is used).
