Hi,
I've uploaded a file with FileService SmartObject to a server directory.
I need to attach that file in my workflow and send with email attachment.
How to get that file to use in my workflow ?
Thank you.

Files and File paths can get by using inline functions. I have attached a document explaining inline functions in detail and how to use them. This file also explains the different kinds of functions to be used and what they return. I would suggest looking at the GetFile and Files function. After the file was received you can use it in your workflow by following the steps that Thabang-96 provided.

Hi Jacques,
Function "Get File From Location" is not available in new installation of K2 Five (not upgrade). So, do you have any idea ?
Thank you.

Hello Artiligent-jump,
On K2 Five, perhaps you can use a SmO to return the file data as a base-64 string to this inline function:
In the Context browser > Functions > Files > Get File From Content function.
Please refer to our documentation below for more details on the Files functions available:
Good day Artiligent

Hi Artiligent-Jump
This service broker allows you to upload directly to a file share or local file folder using a SmartObject. It has a single method to upload the file and it returns the path of the uploaded file. This can then be stored and used as a reference in your application.
File Service Broker v2.0
This custom service broker allows the user to perform the following functions based on a full file path
- Read from a file
- Write a file to a folder location
- Delete a file
- Get a list of full path files names from a directory
- Get a list of full path sub-directory names from a directory
This custom service broker is based on the original File Service.
This attached document contains relevant steps required to achieve your goal.
