I do not see any files in your screenshot, but did you try this setting?
the file is there I just didn't share the name, I did but it just returns the name and last date modified doesn't return the actual document,the file is that one .gz that I need to download
Really hard to say without more details. When looking at the integration editor, I see a few more details. Did you set up these things correctly?
yes, like I said I get the file but the file shows whatever you see name , last modfiied , etc.not the actual values.Not the actual file
Did you try to enable HTTP logging?
Again, really hard to say with the information I see ....
what can I provide you so you can understand better?
Not sure. I know there are a few edge cases where Appian cannot parse the data in a way it detects files in binary or base64 encoding.
To be able to say anything, I would need to see the full configuration of the integration objects, specifically the response parsing setup. Then I need to clearly see the data structure of the response body.
Then I would try to match the config to the actual data and look for deviations. But that is something that you can do yourself.
my question was more of do you know of any integration returning a .gz file being saved in any way either downloaded to desktop or saved in an appian folder ?right now it does save a file in appian but it just includes the same thing we see on the success screen name, last modifiedetc..
??? I am really confused ??? I have the feeling that we have a lengthy conversation based on a pile of missing information, wrong assumptions and misunderstandings.
Is that file stored in Appian, or not?
What do you mean with "downloaded to desktop" ? An integration can't do that ?!?
What do you mean with "just includes the same thing we see on the success screen"?
1. I test the integration it returns an output which I already showed. -(Which is just the details of the document , name , last modified, number of records etc) . At this point I'm not seeing the document.
2. it saved A document in A appian folder I open that file is NOT the .GZ file is just a file with the body ouput which is just again , name , last modified, number of records etc) NOT the actual data inside the document.
3. What I'm trying to do is get that document that the integration is returning , the actual .gz file is what I need. I'm asking if appian has a way of either saving it directly on appian or just downloading it to my desktop when I call the integration.
1) You can't see the "document" in the output because Appian stores files directly into the folder you provide.
2) That response body seems to be a JSON structure.. Did you try to configure the integration to work with JSON, similar to the screenshot I shared?
3) An integration in Appian cannot store anything to your desktop.
If I don't select what you showed at the beginning it doesn't save any file.
just don't know why is saving the same details as the output, not the actual data of the document.
