    How do I get the Path to a uploaded file? It is not present in the $_POST array

    The post data does not show the URL path of the uploaded file, but you can manually do this by encoding the path manually:

    http://www.jotform.com/uploads/your_username/your_form_id/{$submission_id_var}/{$filename_var}

    Note:  The fonts in red are those that you will need to find the details from your account or your form. These are to be hardcoded.  While those in green, you can get it from the data being posted by your $_POST vars, so just getting the variables will do fine.

    If you need further assistance regarding this, please let us know.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

     

    Thanks I saw that but there was somekind of a bug because the filename was not present in the array, the second time I submitted the form it was there.

     

    Now it is working really well, thanks for your advice.
