Question

Hi all,

As mention above, is there any tool or component in OutSystem (or outside OS) allow us to scan file(to make sure clean file, detect virus) before upload file to server?

I have already searched in Forge and found only "VirusTotalAPI" component. I tried to use it but output return from server action ( that call REST API to scan file upload) seem not like I expected. It just said "come back later for the report".

Thank you,

Huy

I don't think there are any out-of-the-box components in Outsystems that will provide this functionality. If you're concerned about viruses being uploaded to a server through your application, you'll have to find a provider for this, and most of them are either paid, or in the case of being public, like VirusTotal, do not service commercial applications:
