You Asked

Hi,

I have a use case in which I want the end user to upload files from UI and it will directly store into the application's static files section. Are there any APIs available?

Thanks,
Tushar

To my knowledge that is not possible because think of the security implications.

Your app might be using a particular static javascript file, and lo and behold, its just been replaced with a brand new one.

I think a better option would be a standard File Browse item that loads into APEX_APPLICATION_TEMP_FILES
