Flyte enables production-grade orchestration for machine learning workflows and data processing created to accelerate local workflows to production.

Flyte

Hello, I  am trying to develop an 'interactive' workflow that waits for an external input. Flyte allows me to build this pipeline with the `wait_for_input` method. My question is, can I enable the users to upload a let say a json file through the `wait_for_input` method?

I tried passing a FlyteFile to the wait_for_input’s _expected_type arg,_ and looks like while this may be technically possible, it is not supported yet by Flyte Console

You can have your user upload it to a storage service and then provide the path to the file as `str` so the next tasks know where to download it from

ah yes that will be one work around. Thanks Victor! It would be quite cool if we can upload a file from Flyte console!

Looks like there’s work in progress for supporting file uploads as launchplan parameters in Flyte Console: <https://github.com/flyteorg/flyte/issues/3317>

Would this also work for your use case?

Definitely! This is gonna work for my use case
