  • Dynamic variables & Events of the Zip Archive Information. Access detailed information on a zip (or other archive type) file, including the archive filename, a list of archived files along with their count, sizes of compressed and uncompressed files, and the compression ratio.

    Additionally, events related to the successful or unsuccessful retrieval of archive information are recorded.

Note

  • When retrieving information on archive contents, Zip Archive Information Action supports multi-volume ZIP archives. However, when calculating file compression ratio (the relationship between total size of uncompressed files and ZIP archive size), the total archive size is calculated without including the size of header of each volume. Due to headers, there is a slight difference between single ZIP file and the same archive split to multiple volumes. However, it is rather insignificant (less than kilobyte per volume).
