With which action is it possible to extract the root path, directory, file name, or extension of a file?

The action that allows you to extract the root path, directory, file name, or extension of a file is the "Get filepath part" action. This action is specifically designed for handling file paths and offers the functionality to dissect a given file path into its various components.

When using the "Get filepath part" action, you can specify exactly what part of the file path you want to retrieve. For example, you can opt to obtain just the file name without its extension, only the directory of the file, or the complete root path. This capability is particularly useful when you're processing files in automation workflows, where handling and manipulating file paths is a common requirement.

The other actions listed, such as "Get Special Folder," "Get Files in Folder," and "If File(s) Exists," serve different purposes. "Get Special Folder" is used to access predefined folders, "Get Files in Folder" retrieves a list of files within a specific folder, and "If File(s) Exists" checks for the existence of specified files. None of these actions are geared toward extracting specific components of a file path, which is the strength of the "Get filepath part" action.
