Building Recipes: Working with Attachments in Workato

Modified on: Fri, Dec 2, 2016 at 11:47 AM

File content vs File from URL

There are two general ways Workato handles uploading attachments: uploading file content and uploading file from URL.

1. Uploading file content

This type of action allows you to upload plain text file content as a file.

2. Uploading file from URL

This action allows you to upload a file of any type from its URL.


Downloading file content

When you download file content in Workato, you are not actually downloading the file to your computer. Downloading file content is useful with text-based files, allowing you to use the text content of a downloaded file in further steps of your recipe.
