File

 

The subtype of a field can be selected in the property Content Format.

File Subtype

 

When the selected subtype is File, aspects related to its storage must be considered. The location where the attached file is saved is determined by the persistence configuration.

 

It is possible to attach files to fields both from the computer and from Google Drive. This functionality is automatically available when configuring and publishing the Google Drive adapter, without requiring changes to the modeling.

 

When executing the entity, a file can be added by clicking on the modeled field.

 

The following options are available:

From the computer: allows selecting a local file.

From Google Drive: a window will open to log in to Google (if necessary) and then select the file from a Google account.

 

Once selected and confirmed, the file is displayed in the field.

Whenever a file is uploaded, the icon Tres Puntitos is displayed to the right of the field, sometimes automatically and other times when hovering the cursor over it.

 

When clicked, the following actions are displayed:

Preview

Download

Delete

 

When hovering the cursor over the file, the preview option is displayed directly, regardless of the field configuration.
