How to add file downloadable links in UI pages from sys_attachment table.

I have tried a few options and putting anchor  value in the href like below

https://instance-name.com/ui_page.do?sys_id=12c0286a1b7161106c1aa86fe54bcb54

I am getting errors like 

Requested attachment does not exist

Even file is there I can able to download it from the sys_attchment table

@Ankur Bawiskar, Please help me on the same.

@singhajeet Try forming your href like following.

 

https://instance-name.com/sys_attachment.do?sys_id=12c0286a1b7161106c1aa86fe54bcb54

//Here sys_id should be the sys_id of your attachment record in sys_attachment table 12c0286a1b7161106c1aa86fe54bcb54 

Hope this helps.

Hi Sandeep, 

 

Thanks for your valuable response!

I already tried that with sys_id of the attachment table, but not working.

 

Thanks

Hi Ankur,

 

The business requirement is - We have to add a file downloadable link on the UI page and the file is stored in the sys_attachment table.

 

I have tried with the sys_id of the sys_attachment table but getting errors like request attachment is not find  - https://instance-name.com/sys_attachment.do?sys_id=12c0286a1b7161106c1aa86fe54bcb54

 

Regards!
