FAQ

Questions about List Files.

What does the List Files action do in Anthropic?

Lists uploaded files in your Anthropic workspace with their IDs, names, and sizes. Used to render a file picker or for cleanup automations.

What inputs does List Files require?

List Files has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Anthropic returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Anthropic returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does List Files support batch operations?

Run List Files inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Anthropic's rate limits.
