HI, I am trying to implement a functionality where I need to save documents from a file upload field to Appian. The button's submit parameter is false. Any idea how this can be implemented?

In my applications, I save various meta data to the database when uploading files. This makes managing files much easier on the long run.
Use this function:

Sadly this function still doesn't work on Task or Start Forms, which though it may make sense given the main Appian-specified use case, is still unfortunate due to how (with careful usage) it woud allow a lot of extra flexibility even in traditional locations where it'd be great to finally be able to persist files to the Appian FS prior to submitting a task.
