Prevent download of attachment

[Kim Kronborg]

I have a form with a "Manage Attachments" link and a "[view]" link to a document attached. The view link opens in a new window so the user can see the document which is fine. But the "Manage Attachments" link downloads the attached document to the users pc and I want to prevent that.

How can I disable this ?

Is it possible to remove the "Manage Attachments" link and just leave the "view" link on the form ?

Thanks

Hi Go to the Attachment ui page and there is a client script in Attachement UI Page . So you can get the role and set the condition :

below is the function you have to give the condition in this code : 

function downloadAllAttachments(){
var downloadUrl = window.location.protocol + '//' + window.location.host + '/download_all_attachments.do?sysparm_sys_id=' + attachmentParentSysId
+ "&sysparm_this_url=" + getCurrentPageURL();
window.location = downloadUrl;
}
