HTTP File Upload

jasmins over 7 years ago

I want to upload file in external system through soap webservice, so currently we are trying to upload this file using http file upload smart services but it is throwing us "500 Internal Server Error" error, we want access document input variable value in WEB API and then pass it to webservice. Please suggest how to achieve it?

Yes @mohammedz, I am sending file directly because in http file upload smart service we have option to select document from community.

Hello, that smart service should allow you to achieve what you are looking for. Is the 500 Internal Server error being thrown from Appian for from the external system? Have you double checked to make sure the credentials and information are put in place correctly?

@sean , External system is not throwing 500 error, because before sending request to web service we need form a Complex CDT , In that CDT we have one field which is containing document data in the form of base64string ,so while forming this CDT only we are getting error in WEB API, how to catch Document input variable value of http file upload in web API or we want understand the role of Document input variable of http file upload smart service?
