    I would suggest to create a service that returns that document into binary format, and when calling from Appian use an integration and converting the return Body to Appian Document

    Appian does not support NFS.

    But grabbing files from one place, just to upload them to another, is not exactly a typical Appian use case. Can you help us with some details?
