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....

Hi,

I have tried to debugged my issue and came out with this conclusion. Whenever I try to get the files which are of earlier versions (.doc,.xls,.ppt) it works fine and document attached to the given link is bought into appian. However if the attached document in the link are of extensions versions ie, (.docx,.xlsx,.pptx) then there is a problem and file is not bought in Appian when a send http request service is used.
So, is there any updated version of this "Send HTTP Request" plugin available in which this issue is addressed and handled?

Thanks in advance.
