Hi
We are trying to retrieve message attatchments using the REST API.
This solution isn't acceptable because we can't make all attachments public.
Is there a way, using the API authentication, to retrieve actual attachment data?
Hi Yossis,
Have you checked by using endpoint and doing below restadmin call in it :
http://community.lithium.com/community-name/restapi/vc/messages/id/[id] /uploads/attachments
[ return url parameter from endpoint to download attachment of that message ]
Thanks,
Vishwajeet
I can find the url value. But direct requests to the url do not allow download
Hi Yossis,
You need to create custom component to display attachment if user is registered user. Please follow the below code which can be inserted into the forum message quilt:-
<#assign AttachedFile = rest("/messages/id/${env.context.message.id}/uploads/attachments").attachments.attachment />
<#list AttachedFile as file>
<#if !user.anonymous>
<a class="lia-link-navigation attachment-link" href="${file.url}">${file.title} ‏${(file.content.size?number/1024)?round} KB</a>
<#else>
<a class="lia-link-navigation attachment-link" href="/t5/user/userloginpage">${file.title} ‏${(file.content.size?number/1024)?round} KB</a>
</#if>
</#list>
