Hey everyone,

 

I'm trying to find a way to tell Nintex or SharePoint to go to a particular URL (e.g. https://documentURL.xlsx), grab the document from that URL and save it into a SharePoint library.

 

Has anyone ever had luck doing something like this? Would love to hear from you if so!

 

Cheers,

Scott

Hi Scott

Using REST API You can Achieve this ,

1) Get the file Properties using rest api 

2) look into this Link :  Nintex Workflow for Office 365 - Copy Attachments to Document Library - Vadim Tabakman

Hey Ranjith,

Thanks for the response! It looks like Vadim's solution only seems to work for SharePoint -> SharePoint copies, which is a shame, because otherwise this is 100% what I need!

I need it to pull the attachment from a Zendesk instance, which means this one doesn't work for me

Thanks again!

Cheers,

Scott

Hi, did you ever found a solution for this? I also want to download a file from an external (not Sharepoint) source and save it to a Sharepoint library. This should happen within the Nintex Workflow
