# FileChooser class
File choosers let you react to the page requesting for a file.
#### Signature:
```typescript
export declare class FileChooser
```
## Remarks
`FileChooser` instances are returned via the [Page.waitForFileChooser()](./puppeteer.page.waitforfilechooser.md) method.
In browsers, only one file chooser can be opened at a time. All file choosers must be accepted or canceled. Not doing so will prevent subsequent file choosers from appearing.
The constructor for this class is marked as internal. Third-party code should not call the constructor directly or create subclasses that extend the `FileChooser` class.
## Example
```ts
const [fileChooser] = await Promise.all([
page.waitForFileChooser(),
page.click('#upload-file-button'), // some button that triggers file selection
]);
await fileChooser.accept(['/tmp/myfile.pdf']);
```
## Methods
| Method | Modifiers | Description |
| ------------------------------------------------------ | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| [cancel()](./puppeteer.filechooser.cancel.md) | | Closes the file chooser without selecting any files. |
