Hi @SAIRAJESHN Using java code in the function able to decode the value. need to pass the encoded (base64) value as the parameter.
try{ String FileContent=File; byte[] decodedString = Base64.getDecoder().decode(FileContent.getBytes("UTF-8")); PDDocument document = PDDocument.load(decodedString);
//Instantiate PDFTextStripper class PDFTextStripper pdfStripper = new PDFTextStripper();
//Retrieving text from PDF document String text = pdfStripper.getText(document); //Closing the document document.close(); return text;
}
catch(Exception e)
{
return "null";
}

Hi @SAIRAJESHN
Check this function @Default.Base64Decode()

@SAIRAJESHN Refer to this article to see how to get the attachment steam and even the decoding java function that is being used while the attachment is downloaded
