Hi @marcosvbi 👋

In WeWeb, you can use [the file upload element](https://docs.weweb.io/workflows/actions/file-upload.html).

You have a couple of options to send the file to Xano:

1. you could upload the file to WeWeb and send the URL of the file to Xano in a text field, or
2. you could upload the file directly to Xano in an [file resource field](https://docs.xano.com/working-with-data/functions/content-upload)

The team is working on making option 2 available in no-code in WeWeb but for now, you’ll need a little bit of Javascript (snippet included in the article I shared above)

Does that help?
