Section titled “Get Zip Comment”Read an archive’s comment.
Settings
Section titled “Settings”| Setting | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Name | Names the returned saved path, metadata or comment for later steps. Extraction returns a success result rather than a new archive. |
| Zip File | The complete application-relative server archive filename. For creation, prepare its writable parent directory first. |
| Output | Includes the named returned path, entry list, comment or extraction result in the action response. Default off; this does not download the archive itself. |
Worked example
Section titled “Worked example”Create a test archive with Comment Documentation example, then read Get Zip Comment and verify the returned text. Repeat with an archive without a comment.
Archive boundaries
Section titled “Archive boundaries”A comment is optional archive metadata. It is not an entry filename, file content or integrity signature, and it does not establish that the archive is trustworthy.
Connect the file workflow
Section titled “Connect the file workflow”Use the actual returned archive path after creation. Use File Download when a browser should receive it, and keep any private files behind a protected server action.
Check your result
Section titled “Check your result”You can configure the archive operation and verify the intended entries, metadata or extracted files.
