Blazor Input File Component (physical path)

Question

I want to get the physical file path. I tried a few options. <input type="file">
I need to get the physical path to pass it to another API in windows service on the same machine.
is it possible or not?

When that physical file path is on an Apple Mac or an Android phone, what would your windows service do with that? — Henk Holterman
@henk-holterman i want to implement one of them . and always was run on windows — Murteza
No, Blazor always runs in a Browser so, because it could run on Android you only get APIs that run everywhere. — Henk Holterman
