Convert Attachment as Binary files.

[ersureshbe]

Hi,

Is it possible to convert service now attachment as binary files using script. If yes, can you share any test script? I've analysed Service now provide capability to convert base64 and bytes.

Hey  sureshloganathan,

Try this Code:

var StringUtil = new GlideStringUtil();

var attachments = new GlideSysAttachment();

var gR = new GlideRecord('sys_attachment');

gR.addEncodedQuery('table_name=incident^table_sys_id='+current.sys_id);

 gR.query();

while(gR.next())

{

var binData =   attachments.getBytes(gR);

 var encData =   StringUtil.base64Encode(binData);

 gs.print(binData);

 gs.print(encData);

 gs.print('**************');

}

If my answer helps you Mark my Answer Correct and Helpful.

Thanks,

Namrata.

I'm looking for binary file conversion. 

var binData =   attachments.getBytes(gR); -- helps to binary conversion. i.e., binary and bytes are same?
