Attachment in Webservice call

Dear Community,

within a list workflow we call a webservice (SOAP 1.2 protocol) with parameter values read from list item.

We also would like to send the item attachments, but we don't understand how to encode that.

Here is a working sample code:

<Attachment>

<Content>/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQE..<snip>AYABgAAD/FFFFABRRRQB/9k=</Content>

<ContentType>image/jpg</ContentType>

<Filename>screenshot.jpg</Filename>

</Attachment>

Here we have to encode the file/image to Base 64 and provide the mime type accordingly.

So what how to get this dynamically created inside the workflow?

Best Regards

Rolf

Hi,
The following thread has some solutions for this issue.
One is to copy the attachments to a document libray and then run the workflow on the library.
The files are automatically encoded using the [FileData] reference.
