File Browser Dialog

What is the input type to use if you wanted a file browser dialog?  There are many default workflow that requires that you type in the exact path of a file when it would be easier to browse to it.

I have tried so many of them but nothing seems to work.  Please assist.  Greatly appreciate your help.

Input type MimeAttachment will open a file browser dialog. Note that it is content-oriented rather than location-oriented; that is, you'll be able to get the content of the selected file but not the directory where it was loaded from.

There is also a File type but it is used in scripting, not as input type.

Also note that the MimeAttachment type and Resource Elements cannot exceed 4MB in size.
