Upload/Download files
Question
Import/Export Data
Hi everybody,
I am a new user who is enjoying a lot Outsystems platform.
I am completely new to the world of programming but I am trying to create a simple DB with the Agile Platform.
My database has already the basics which I managed to put following the online tutorial, but now I would like to add some more feature.

In particular I would like to add the option to upload and download files for each entry in the database.
I didn't find any tutorial on this, I saw that there is a widget to upload a file, but not one to download.

I would appreciate if someone could help in setting up the upload/download function.

Many thanks in advance,
Stefano

Hi Stefano,

Welcome to the OutSystems Community.
To add file to an entity just add attributes for the filename and filecontent (type BinaryData).
Then, as you say, you can use the Upload widget on a web screen to allow the user to upload a file.
To download it you can use the Download element.

You can check the eSpace in attachment for an example.

Cheers,
Tiago Simões
PS: A good way to learn is also to take a look into these apps

Hi n p,

You can find a 7.0 version in atachment.
One important thing to note is to try not use the binarycontent files from the preparation queries. Instead of that it is better to get the record again in the screen actions in order to improve performance.

Cheers,
Tiago Simões

Hi Christopher,

That last version seems to work correctly on 9.0.1.25 (as long as you upgrade it with Service Studio).

Hi Tiago,

For the Upload button, in the DocumentFile_Edit Web Screen, can I use AJAX Method instead of SUBMIT? I still have much to learn on this platform.

Thank  you very much.

Kind regards,

Christopher

Hi Siva

Sorry about that, it has been a year ago when I encountered this issue. I can't recall whether did I solve it or have any workaround. I would suggest you to create a new post for your question. 

Apologize that couldn't help in this case.

Thanks.

Hi Siva

I did a quick try, it is possible to do upload and download in a table record. You have to specific the AttachmentId in the upload function, then you GetAttachmentForUpdate, assign the value accordingly and lastly do the Update. Hope this help and it's what you want to achieve. 

Regards

XiaoHui

To store the data you only need to create an entity like this:
