Hi,

We have a requirement to upload files coming form an external system to Appian. I am following this tutorial:  

https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.1/passing-a-web-api-document-into-a-process-model.html

I created all the objects required (process model, cdt, etc.). How can I test this in the test Inputs section? The "Body" field says Select a document. Is this asking for a full path of the file to be uploaded? What is the syntax for setting the Body field?

The file to select must be uploaded to Appian before.

You have to upload a document not path, If your logic is correct then it creates a new document.
