Thank you. After I update form.js to v1.0.0, the “Select File” button disappears.

In form.yml:  
app\_directory:  
data-filepicker: true  
data-target-file-type: ‘dirs’  
help: |  
“The directory where the Streamlit app is”

Change to new form.js:

Here’s the checksum of the v1.0.0 that works for me. Can you check your browser’s dev tools and console log for any errors that may be occurring? Also please let us know your platform & browser (and version), there could be some compatibility issue.

Upgrade OOD to 2.10

[root@ondemand-stage rshiny]# md5sum form.js  
f05e0d9cf581097487c07dce5158e89d form.js  
[root@ondemand-stage rshiny]# md5sum form.js\_old  
c9d06372cea9f1e9f23dc3ce0f0bbcd1 form.js\_old

Restart OOD

Using Firefox Private Windows and Chrome Incognito Window, I cannot see the “Select File” button.

After I shift to the old form.js (v0.4.7), I can see the “Select File” button.

app\_directory:  
data-filepicker: true  
data-target-file-type: dirs  
help: |  
“The directory where the app is”

Are there cache for OOD apps?
