How to convert a file into base64 string
How to convert a file into base64 string?
Please provide a sample java code.
Currently I'm trying to use below, but it does not return correct base64 string value.
java.io.File file = new java.io.File("D://Folder1//Folder2//Test.txt");
FileExists=file.exists();
//init array with file length
byte[] bytesArray = new byte[(int) file.length()];
//encode the byte array into Base64.
try
{
//Base64String = Base64Util.encodeToString(bytesArray);
Base64String = java.util.Base64.getMimeEncoder().encodeToString(bytesArray);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
throw new PRRuntimeException("Can't attach the file to the Work Object");
}

You can try this approach without using java function :
1.Set pxRequestor.pyFileUpload with path of the file to be encoded.
2. Call the function @uploadFile() in a property-set which will populate string type property. This property will contain your Base64, File Extension, File Name and File Path.

I used the following java step {File name is hardcoded but we can pass parameter}. This workd.
ClipboardPage processPage = tools.findPage("pxProcess", false);
ClipboardPage reqPage = tools.findPage("pxRequestor", false);
reqPage.getProperty("pyFileUpload").setValue(processPage.getProperty("pxServiceExportPath ")+ "UserListData.csv");
java.util.HashMap hmFileInfo = pega_rules_utilities.uploadFile();
String FileData = (String)hmFileInfo.get("FileData");
processPage.putString("encodedString", FileData);
