Hi there.  

 

Using the web based workflow designer, is it possible to use the Get File From Location inline function and have the file land in a data field that can then be manipulated later in the workflow?

 

Someone walked me through how to do this with the stand-alone Client Based K2 Studio...you have to have the destination be a XML Field...but I don't seem to see a way to manipulate XML fields in the web based workflow.

 

Anyway, help is appreciated as always.

Hi,


 


There is no XML data field in the web designer, so you will have to settle with String instead. That definitely makes manipulation much more complicated. I'm not sure if anyone else has a better idea, but my solution is to use the inline function to do your manipulation.


 


Since you know the get file from location function returns your file in a specific format, you can use the available Text inline functions to do what you want. Just place the get file from location function within another function.
