How to pre populate attachment variable inside record producer

[Alon Grod]

Hi,

I create a Record Producer and one of the variables is of type Attachment. I would like to pre populate this variable with a pdf file and to have a digital signature underneath, is it possible ?

Hi,

Yes this is possible by specifying the sys_id of the sys_attachment record as the default value for the variable

Hi @Alon Grod 

Yes, it is technically feasible. You just need to create a onload client script and script include , write this function.

populatePdf: function() {

        var SysId = this.getParameter('<sys_id of record>');

        var attachPDFSysId = "";

        var grAttachment = new GlideRecord('sys_attachment');

        grAttachment.addQuery('table_name', '<table_name');

        grAttachment.addQuery('table_sys_id', SysId);

        grAttachment.query();

        if (grAttachment.next()) {

            attachPDFSysId = grAttachment.sys_id.toString();

        }

        return attachPDFSysId;

    }

Note: For adding digital signature , you need to add additional script.
