fill attachment control with attachments


Badge +5

Hello,

I have a case in which I grab the attachments through service in nintex workflow, and get the xml data, what I want now is to fill this data to the attachment control in nintex, so the user can add more attachments or delete from the existing ones, is that possible in nintex workflow??

Thanks

Hi Omar,

you can use the AddAttachment method of the Lists WebService. See if you can make use of the Get List Item Attachment in Base64 custom action explained in this thread.

Why we can not connect the attachments to site column like the other information? this is making it harder to work with attachments.

Omar,

Attachments isn't a site column and are treated as documents via SharePoint so its not available.  When you look at the site column for attachments it is a yes or no trigger only.

So using the add attachment method is kinda the only way :-).
