How to get full path when upload file choose desktop file workflow?

Hi Team,

I done customization for startworkflow.jsp("/libs/cq/gui/components/authoring/workflow/startworkflow/startworkflow.jsp").

When click upload file choose option getting fakepath append filename,How to get full path directory need to send email attachment.

I am not able  send file attached by using fakepath. error message : java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\fakepath\testJcrcontent.txt(The system cannot find the path specified).

EmailAttachment attachment = new EmailAttachment();

  attachment.setPath("C:\fakepath\testJcrcontent.txt");

        attachment.setDisposition(EmailAttachment.ATTACHMENT);

        attachment.setDescription("Any Description");

        attachment.setName("Any name you can set");

Thanks

Pick the file using File API like   File file = new File(path_to_file); and then use file.getPath();

Alternatively, if you want to use a generic solution rather than a system dependent folder structure, try this -

File directory = new File("."); -- current WD for AEM, map the file path relative to AEM directory somewhere outside crx-quickstart

String path = directory.getCanonicalPath() + File.separator + LOCAL_FOLDER + File.separator;  -- File.separator would work both on Win & Linux

File file = new File(path + filename);

attachment.setPath(file.getPath());

    Hi @gaurav-behl, can you suggest how to pick file using File API. Can you provide any example for that through which we can get absolute path of the file uploaded. Thank in advance!!
