Query Advanced editor: Select File as Variable

I know that we can add parts of file paths as variables and then type the desired parameter in the text box to invoke the function on the desired file. 

 

Instead, is there a way we can make Query to open the "browse for file" window so that we can go to different folders and select the file?

Hi @Gangula

 

Based on my research, there is no way to make Query to open the "browse for file" window.
