Select File

The Select File action has also been given its own dedicated space outside of Get File (where it lived before), giving those two distinct functions distinct actions instead of relying on users to figure out how to manipulate one action two ways.
Now, Select File lets you specify one or multiple files, plus switch “modes” from Files to Folders – this allows iOS to display the proper asset picker so you can easily grab entire directories within Shortcuts.
From there, this action is useful with all of the new functions for Files in Shortcuts – if you want to pick the file as the shortcut is run, use Select File.
