Thanks. Eventually we should move to using our own document versioning since getting the content of a specific version in process is not possible. For the time being, I think we will end up creating a plugin to separate versions into temporary documents so the content can be referenced in Appian.

Thanks for the suggestion. Right now we upload some time after the case is submitted and closed. Since only submitted cases are archived, this may not be feasible to avoid archiving documents before submission but it's something to think about.

How and when are these new versions created? When this is done in a process, you can just send a copy at that time, and you have all that versions.

AFAIK, there is no plugin to give you the previous version of document.

You can get the previous version metadata of document, but i am not sure if it is helpful in your case.

This kind of situation is usually handled by having each version as a separated document and storing the doc id in the table. In this way you will have full control of the versioning
