That thought process makes sense. I configured an integration like the example provided in the documentation but am getting an error like the one mentioned above.

It only works when I provide a url of a document already on appian

Unfortunately, I can't provide the URL as that is private for the client

I tried using an integration object and changed "Response Body Parsing" to "Convert binary to Appian document" but I get an error saying I couldn't connect to the link as it has to match "[*.appiancloud.com, appiancloud.com]"

With web APIs you can only expose functionality to external. Integrations, and connected systems, are made to interact with other systems.

https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.2/Integration_Object.html#receiving-a-binary-document

This should get you started.

A integration object would make the most sense since a URL will return the document. Do you have an example URL?
