Downloading Workflow Attachments

Given that i have a list of objectID's that represent all the workflows in our system, can anyone out there tell me how to use the LAPI to download any attachments for those workflows to a LAN drive? I had in mind just to loop through the objID's until all attachments were downloaded. I was looking at the AccessWorkPackage method but I'm not sure that is my solution.

A code snippet would be great, be any info would be appreciated much!

I would go by that approach,I would just find the attchment id from the wf package do a listobjects on it for documents and then just do a fetch version.I took a sample wf code snippet and made this extremely inelegant code sample in java

Frankly you are supposed to use enumeration methods on those llvalue objects .My code works in my workflow stuff.Pls do due diligence on this and test.If you can somehow actaully find the attchment id's in the wf packages thru a query all you need is a fetcversion call

Hi,

I have put below the C# code I used inone of my projects. I had hardcoded some values, you need to change it.

I hope it helps

public List<LLDocument>GetWorkflowAttachments(int workID, int subworkID)

{

List<LLDocument>rtnDocs = new List<LLDocument>();

LLValue workPkg = newLLValue();

if(wf.AccessWorkPackage(workID, subworkID, workPkg) == 0)

{

if (workPkg.type() ==LLValue.LL_TABLE)

{

//Loop through workpackage to get attachments folder ID

int workPkgSize =workPkg.size();

for (int i = 0; i< workPkgSize; i++)

{

if(workPkg.toValue(i).toInteger("SubType") == 1)

{

intattachFolderID = workPkg.toValue(i).toInteger("UserData");

LLValuechildren = new LLValue();

if(llnode.ListObjects(-2058, attachFolderID, "WebNodes","subtype=144", LAPI_DOCUMENTS.PERM_SEECONTENTS, children) == 0)

{

intchildSize = children.size();

for (intj = 0; j < childSize; j++)

{

LLDocument doc = new LLDocument();

doc.DocumentName = children.toValue(j).toString("FileName");

doc.Data = FetchDocument(children.toValue(j).toInteger("ID"));

rtnDocs.Add(doc);

}

else

{

throw newException("Could not load work package");

}

return rtnDocs;

}

Regards
