get files in directory

Question

Is there a JSL function to get the names of files in a directory (files, no subdirectories, no files in subdirectories).

Use Filter Each() to filter the result from Files In Directory()

Names Default To Here(1);
file_in_dir = Filter Each({filename}, Files In Directory("$HOME"),
	!IsMissing(Regex(filename, "^.+\..+$")) // some pattern here
);

You could also use Multiple File Import but it is a bit more complicated Directory Tree: Explore Space Used by Folders
