Hello everyone,

 I am getting a base64 value as a request. But I am unable to convert the base64 value into an image document. As a result record is not getting stored into the database table. Is there any way to convert the base64 string into document?

Where do you get that image from? An API? Did you configure the API to turn base64 data into files?

Actually, I have exposed a service in appian to write data into record and consume the service from a different platform. That system is sending the image in base64 format, but after getting the base64 value I am not able to generate the document in appian.

OK. What did you do so far? A good implementation example is here

You can not, and don't have to, do any kind of "active" base64 conversion. Appian manages that for you.
