Hello,
I have a process, that needs to store an image to apian. The image is hosted on another machine.
How can I do this just having the id of the image that was posted to that location.
Thanks in advance,
George

a!cmiCopyDocumentToAppianFolder() function will do the job.
But some additional parameters required to configure the function. Go through the below link

The connector functions return a writer and must be used with the bind() function.
And the bind() function which require execution from user action within saveInfo parameter. I don't think there is way to do this without user interaction.
It's better to build a custom smart service which will do your job.

You could use the SFTP functions to bring the document across, but that would rely on being able to identify the document by ID. To be honest your query doesn't contain enough information to be able to help; Does the other machine have SFTP capabilities? Is the document stored with meta data, and is that meta data available? Is the document named by ID or as its original name? Is there a service whereby the path to the document can be found using the ID?
