# Get File Info

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

_Get File Info_ fetches information about a file at the specified path. You can retrieve the
following information: date created, date modified, owner, and when the file was last accessed. The
information fetched is saved in the appropriate variables for further processing. Dates are returned
in UTC (coordinated universal time) format as follows (yyyyMM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ).

## Properties

**File Operation Settings**

- **Directory path** Enter the path to the directory where the file is saved. You can specify an
  absolute or relative path. If a relative path is used, then the path relates to the _Base Path_
  variable.

- **File Name** Enter the name of the file here that require information about.

Placeholders are not permitted. For further information please refer to the section on **Invalid
characters**.

Other Properties that are the same in all action steps are described in the section on **Common
Properties**. For reasons of clarity they are not shown here.

## Inbound Variables

absolute or relative path. If a relative path is used, then the path relates to the _Base Path_
variable.

## Outbound Variables

**File Size** The _Get_ _File Info.File Size_ variable provides the size of the file.

  an absolute path or a path relative to the _Base Path_. The initial value is %STWS\_BASEPATH%.
  Select an existing path. You can also insert variables from the _Workflow_ in order to construct
  the path. To do so, click on the pin and select one of the available variables.

  insert a variable from the Workflow as the _File Name_. To do so, click on the pin and select one
