How to get URL of an Online Public Resource in a Web App

[#1]

Hi,

We upload our CSS+JS files and our images in Resources>Online>Public Resources. We would like to get the public URL (available when you select a Resource>tab Preview) from a javascript template and/or a web app.

We tried

xtk.fileRes.get(12435) // not found
xtk.fileRes.get("12435") // not found
xtk.fileRes.get(12435).GetURL() // not found

It would be nice to have

GetPublicURLFromResourceLabel("myLabelHere") // https://instance/res/1414135351.css
// or
ResourceFromLabel("myLabelHere").GetURL()

In short, how to convert a Public Resource to a Public URL?

Or maybe we should store our CSS in another place? What are the best practices for web development into Adobe Campaign?

Thank you

Florian

1. Use filename instead of md5: Go to Advanced and uncheck Unique file name:

2. use xtk.fileRes.GetPublicFileResURL(😞

var publicResourceURL = xtk.fileRes.GetPublicFileResURL() + "favicon.png"; // http://your-instance-res-url/your_instance/favicon.png

Hi Florian,

There is a function called getImageUrl, which does what you are looking for.

you can either pass the resource ID or internal name:

getImageUrl("myLabelHere") --> https://instance/res/1414135351.css

thanks,

Dirk
