Generate PDF Behavior

Generate PDF Behavior

Renders a System Template as a PDF and stores the PDF file in an S3 Upload Attribute or directly in a user’s File Library. This can be used to store a point-in-time snapshot as a downloadable file.

Overview

This Behavior evaluates a System Template, converts the result to a PDF file, and stores it in the user’s File Library. The file can also be attached to an S3 Upload Attribute so that it can be accessed from a Workflow.

This can save a point-in-time snapshot to a file so that it can be retrieved later, even if the Workflow data or template definition change.

S3 File Library

Select a File Library to store the generated file.

If you select this option then the file will be in the user’s File Library, but will not be accessible through a Workflow until it is attached to an Upload Attribute.

S3 Upload Attribute

Select an S3 Upload Attribute that the file should be attached to.

This will store the file in the S3 File Library attached to the Upload Attribute, and the file will be accessible to the end user from any Workflow Step that exposes the Upload Attribute to them.
