Hi Everyone, I am using "Appian Document from Base64 String" Sma

Hi Everyone,
I am using "Appian Document from Base64 String" Smart service, that is used to get the attachment from a download link. This smart service has 'docExtension' as one of its input parameter. Now this smart service works fine for pdfs,mp3,doc format. By fine I mean it successfully gets the attachment present on the given download url in Appian.However, if any attachment is of the form '.docx' then it gets the document in appian, but when one tries to access that .docx document in Appian it says that the file can not be opened and is corrupted.

Is there a way where in I can get and access .docx extension file in Appian using this smart service.
This is bit urgent. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance....

  • I am using 'Send Http Request to get Document' Service to make a call in order to download the document present on the provided download link. In the output of this service there is 'responseBody'. Now when I try to make http request to the download link which contains '.docx' extension document, then the the value of the 'responseBody' in the output tab is absurd and is not coming correct as a result of which the .docx file is not being bought in Appian environment. However for other extension(pdf/mp3) http request call works fine. I am bringing files from Box.net to Appian.
