Any plans to expand a!submitUploadedFiles() beyond portals? I have use cases where this could be useful in a standard application.

Can you provide more information about what your use cases are? What are you hoping to achieve / what's the impact / what work arounds have you used / etc?

Hi Peter,

  • The main use case would be to allow users to upload files directly from an interface (Site page or Record View). I often develop master detail interfaces where users can update information without having to click a Record Action.
  • My main workaround now for file uploads is basically having a Record Action tied to a Process with a Start form.
  • Impact is that users have an extra click to be able to add or update documents.

Thanks!

Mat

    Thanks for the additional context Mat! I have captured this information in a product use case internally to help us prioritize this. I will say this is an area that we are actively looking into, since as you mentioned Portals now offers a similar functionality for this [emoticon:c4563cd7d5574777a71c318021cbbcc8]
