Attachments Table

[smcvr]

Hi community!

I am trying to edit the content of the task with jsp.

How do I add the attachments table in Task?
I will upload the file from the table and ask the users to advance their tasks.

Hi @smcvr 

What attachment table do you need? A Workflow Task object does not have attachments. 

The Workflow Task can be linked with an object that does not have the attachments for example baseline. 

have you tried to use component ?

<%@taglib uri="http://www.ptc.com/windchill/taglib/mvc" prefix="mvc"%>

<jsp:include page="${mvc:getComponentURL('com.custom.Tables.MyAttachementTableBuilder')}"/>

Hi @HelesicPetr 

I need to pull the attachment table from the content page into the task.
I want to add a file from the task and the file we loaded from the task should appear in the attachment table on the content page.

Hi @smcvr 

It is still not clear. for me

What content page? What object type? What task?

Where do you need to show the table? Change Task as a object or Workflow Task as a user's task? 

As I mention try to use mvc.getComponent.

In my example of code there is custom table builder but I'm not sure if it works in a workflow task page.

I expect that you need to add a table to user's task page that shows Change Task/Activity Attachments

You can try to use Native Form Template where you can define what should be shown

Attachment Table is possible to add there

Then just define the task form in the Workflow task where this template should be used.

Hi @HelesicPetr 

I am editing a task page with jsp for users.

It will download the excel file that users need to edit from the task sheet and then upload the excel file they have edited from the task to the system from the "Attachments" table.

I have the users download the excel file but I cannot show the "Attachments" table on the task screen.

Hi @smcvr 

What object type is the the attachment table on ? 

As I mentioned earlier the Attachment Table is possible to add to the task page by Native Form Template

Hi @HelesicPetr 

The attachment table in task will depend on the attachment table in the content page.

The excel file we loaded from the task should appear on the content page.

Hi @smcvr 

So does the workflow run directly on the WTDocument?

[smcvr]

Hi @HelesicPetr 

yes, it works on WTDocument

@smcvr 

So try what I've advised you

Task Form Template

Hi @HelesicPetr 

I know I can do this.

I will also make different edits in the task, so I cannot edit the content of the task as you showed.

How can I get that table there with JSP?

[HelesicPetr]

Hi @smcvr 

I usually use component method to show table in a jsp page....

as I wrote 

<%@taglib uri="http://www.ptc.com/windchill/taglib/mvc" prefix="mvc"%>

<jsp:include page="${mvc:getComponentURL('com.custom.Tables.MyAttachementTableBuilder')}"/>

You may just need to identify component ID for the attachment table..
