UI link for attachments based on API results

Post by nikolaiblackie » Tue Feb 09, 2021 12:44 am

I need to add links to attachments that users can select to get access to the attachment.

i.e. https://enterprise-sandbox-au.simprosui ... chment.php? but from parameters returned from https://developer.simprogroup.com/apido ... 06b81cf378

Hello Nikolai,

The location parameter in attachment url is encrypted value which is not available in rest api. Please follow the link below for a similar issue.

Thanks Muqeet, that approach doesn't really support our requirement. We wanted to insert download links in the notes fields of an external system so users could click, authenticate with simPro credentials and download.

Thanks for confirming, we will look at a different approach.
