Hi,
I need to develop a requirement where a link should be placed on a specific ticket type form and opens the content in a new tab.
The link is a PDF a want to upload, somehow, to my SN instance instead of an external link.
I've tried a lot of things, tried to change the display value of a URL field or HTML field, but I couldn't achieve my goal.
However I want this field to not be editable, something like read-only, and URL field allows me to edit the link.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Pedro

Hi Pedro,
This requires some scripting. You'll need to use the URL as an endpoint for a GlideHTTPRequest(), then get the content and save it to the sys_attachment table, setting the table field to your current table and table_sys_id field to the current record's sys_id. While I haven't don this, it's do-able in theory. Perhaps this will help get you started.
