Hi,

Good day.I would like to inquire if there is a way to retain the original attachment in the XML file after the SaveToSharePoint command is executed? Is there a way also to have a unique file name for each file that is save to the document library? Attach is the actual form that I have that is working fine except for the two requirements mentioned above. Thank you..

Hi-

Yes, you can do both of these things.

To keep the original attachment, use the parameter /clear=no

To name a file, you can use the parameters /name (non repeating) or /namexpath (repeating attachment).

In your case you'll have to add form name to each row of the schema, so you could use

SaveToSharePoint /url= /xpath=/my:myFields/my:group1/my:group2/my:File /clear=no /namexpath=my:name

Hope this helps!

Thank you very much Ernesto. I will try this and see how it works.

Hi Ernesto,

Good day. The form is almost working but I cannot get the correct /xpathname to be able to use in a repeating table.  The attached form works fine as long as there is only once attachment. But as soon as I add another attachment, the file will not be save in sharepoint. What I'm trying to achieve is to name each individual file with the value of the text in field3. Can you please help me once again. Thank you.

Hi - you'll want to add the name field as an attribute to the File node and then use the relative path in the command. See attached. :)

Thank you very much Hilary. Is it correct that I can set the default value of the "name" field of the "File" node to concatenate other field to automate the naming? (  for example concat(field4, "-", field1)   )

You certainly can - You'll want to make sure those names are unique tho. :)

 Thank you very much Hilary and Ernesto. My inquiry is now resolved. Have a nice day.
