Text in File to String in Pega
Is there any OOTB to read a file (probably XML) and put its data to a string in PEGA. If not please provide the java code to do so

You can try using File Listener data instance to read the file from a folder. In Service-File rule use File at a time processing method to process the file and assign the contents of the file to a text property something similar as below.

When you upload a file using the File control, file gets copied on the server and the path of the file is available on pxRequestor.pyFileUpload property. You could then use standard rule-utility-function (RUF) uploadFile to get the file content in base 64 encoded form in a Map. Check uploadFile RUF for more details.

If you do a pega trace of clicking and opening a previously-attached file on a work object, will the trace reveal an example of what you are looking for ? /Eric
