Downloading image from external url
Hi All,
I have a requirement where I have a button and when user clicks on that button a image will open in new document which I am able to achieve but I am unable to download the image to local server because these downloaded images will later be used in email attachement.
I have tried to look for out of the box rules for downloading images from external url but no luck.
Can anybody help me here?
Best Regards,

Hi
Have you checked the activity Rule-File-Binary.downloadFile ?
You might need to create your own activity and twig the logic of this activity a little in order to access external URL image.

Use the below script in a Auto generated section OR Control.
<script>
function DownloadURL(url)
{
if((navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE") != -1 ) || (!!document.documentMode == true ))
{
var win = window.open("", "FileDownload","width=500,height=400,resizable=yes");
win.document.write('<iframe id="MyFrame" width="100%" height="100%"></iframe>');
win.document.getElementById('MyFrame').src = url;
}
else
{
var a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = url;
a.download = url;
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.click();
document.body.removeChild(a);
}
}
</script>
<html>
<img border="0" src="webwb/pzDownloadIcon.png" title='Download File' width="16" height="16" onclick="DownloadURL('<%=tools.getParamValue("URL")%>')"/>
</html>
