Single Attachment Actions

readAttachment

Info

This API call returns an array containing a dictionary with the Attachment object matching the Id specified.

Important returned fields:

  • Body – base64 encoded attachment data (if ReturnBase64Data is not false)

  • ThumbBody – base64 encoded attachment thumbnail data (if ReturnBase64Data is not false and attachment is an image)

  • FileURL – local URL to the attachment file

  • ThumbURL – local URL to the attachment thumbnail file (empty string if attachment is not an image)

Note

The queryAttachment API call will NOT return the Attachment's Base64 Body field or the Base64 data representing the thumbnail.

createAttachmentFromCamera

Info

The createAttachmentFromCamera method allows creation of Attachments directly from the device's camera. The intended Attachment ParentId is a required argument. Optionally, you can specify a file name for the attachment, instead of using the name of the original file. On success, the response data contains the Id of the created attachment.

Code Block
var request = {
"type" : "createAttachmentFromCamera",
"data" : {
        "ParentId" : "001234567891234",            // Required
        "Name" : "AttachmentName.jpg"             // Optional
    }
};
bridge.sendRequest(request, function (responseData) {
    if (responseData.type == "createAttachmentResponse") {
        alert('Created Attachment Id: ' + responseData.data);
    }
    else {
        // error code
    }
});
