There is no way to upload files via the UI. If you can provide more details on what you are trying to achieve, we may be able to help with a workaround

also what do you mean by “my machine”, is that a host in an inventory?

I have a scenario in production the operations engineer will have restricted access they won’t be able push the packages or files every time using ssh.

So it would be great if we have an option to upload files from operations engineers machine to awx project host from where the job executions and deployment can happen directly through ui it would be great

Any workaround for this ?

Why can't they put the files in git? Ansible roles usually have a files/ section for "payload" type stuff.

Hi,

I have created small PHP based upload portal and use survey to download input file required for that particular Job template.

It is production server not a dev server ,there only already tested artifacts are deployed and also it is an airgapped environment no network connectivity

But you want to allow them to upload arbitrary files to these systems?

The ops person will be uploading the artifact from his restricted desktop to server through ui and he should be able to deploy directly using ui so trying to figure out awx will be fine for this
