you can't... file reference does not return the response... (yes I know that's dumb, I thought the same thing) What I had to do is write the response to the session, and after file reference returns success/fail I go back and request the session variable as an XML response...

Stupid Outlook hotkeys. What I meant to say was: In Flash 8 AS2 it was just: listener_obj.onComplete = function(file:FileReference):Void { } Where file was the complete file object on the result which had all the info you needed. Should be something similar in AS3.

fileReference.addEventListener (DataEvent.UPLOAD_COMPLETE_DATA, eventHandler); The DataEvent dispatched will have a data property with the data you are looking for.

Just to note, this functionality was only recently added to FP9 and was not available in previous versions of the player.

Re: [flexcoders] How do I read Response after FileReference uploads a file?
I did something similar. Before the upload I get a token, I pass that token on the querystring of the upload. Once complete I use that token to get info about the upload. I also use this token for authentication purposes. We have had a lot of trouble with file uploads not sharing sessions with all of the other requests in the app. Another advantage to the token is we have a queue of files that the user is uploading from in the app. With the token we don't have to retrieve the response data right away, or it can be ignored altogether. We also expire the tokens after a certain period of time because we do use them for auth as well. Anyway, it's probably overkill for your project, but I thought I'd share.
