4.5 Manage File Storage

File storage in MicroTx Workflows provides a centralized way to define and manage local shared storage for files accessed during workflow and agent execution.

Use file storage to upload and reuse files for processing in scenarios such as:

• document ingestion
• agentic planner inputs
• agent/tool tasks that need file-based inputs

MicroTx Workflows stores files under the configured storage path, conductor.storage.storage-path.location and maintains file metadata for search and retrieval. The built-in File tool uses this storage path as its default base directory, so agents can read files from the same managed location. This feature provides access to local filesystem-based storage inside MicroTx Workflows.

Note:

This feature is not a replacement for cloud object storage, such as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Object Storage.

Topics

• Upload Files to Storage
  Upload one or more files into the local storage of MicroTx Workflows. These files are used for processing later by the File tool and by tasks, such as GenAI Ingestion tasks and Agentic Planner tasks.
• Update a File in Storage
  You can upload an updated version of an existing file in storage.
• Delete a File From Storage
  You can delete a file from storage when it is no longer required.
• Delete all Files From Storage
  Delete all files from storage when you change the file storage location.
