File Attachment from File Server


Badge +10

1.Is it possible to show files that are stored file system on Windows on Smartform using "Content" control?

2. Is it possible to store attachment files in a directory on file syste?

 

Requirement is, scanned PDFs will be stored on a windows server. I need to show them on Smartform. Another requirement is, user will attach file on Smartform and they should be saved in file system in same directory.

Thanks

Hi K2 Beginner,


 


1- The Content Control is designed for web pages only, you might need to create a custom broker to load files from Folder to a list view
2- See this: https://briank2com.wordpress.com/2016/07/01/save-generated-pdf-into-server-file-location/

Hi,

 

If you can get IIS installed on the file server and expose the folder as a Virtual Directory, you can then reference the path in the content control through the Web Site Virtual folder.

I've tested this and it does work.

HTH!
