Get PDF file from SOAP attachment

KrishnaPackiara — Tue, 29 Jun 2021 13:45:32 GMT

Hello,

I want to download a PDF file from a SOAP web service attachment.
Do you how to get the PDF file with a Blue prism component ? Or with a vb net code that we can use with BP ?

FYI :

Content type : application/octet-stream.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Krishna,

This is an external SOAP service that you're communicating with, correct? If so, you can go to System -> Objects -> SOAP Web Services and add a link to the services WSDL. You should then have an object definition available to select from the Object drop down in an Action stage or Process/Object Studio. The output values of the service should be visible as Output data items on the object.

Cheers,
Eric

Hi Eric,
Thank you for answering.
I have already tried this but it didn't work. I have a message saying that I have a internal error with the request analysis.

But the type of variable of the input is unknown whereas my request is a xml stored in a data item.

Do you know how to fix it ?

Best regards,
Krishna.

@KrishnaPackiara, is there an error in the return? If yes could post here for us? I think this would facilitate the understanding and possible resolution na
