Hello,
I am having trouble getting a file from my SF Opportunity to my WF Project. When it is uploaded on the WF end it ends up as an unreadable file.
Here are the modules I am using to process this:
Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong? Is it due to downloading the ContentDocument vs just the Document option?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Did you try to click on Map and map the field File Content to the File Content of the received bundle?

Hello Eric,
First of all I would inspect, what kind of data you get from the Salesforce download module. In my experience unfortunately not all given modules work as expected.
The binary data should come as Buffer, codepage: binary, to directly map them to the Workfront -> Upload Document module without problems.
As we do not use Salesforce, I tried to download a file from Google Drive using the Google Drive -> Download a File module.
Here for example the data comes as a Collection and provides me with an error message, when mapping this to the Workfront -> Upload Document module. I did not find a resolution for this yet.
I will keep you updated, if I make progress concerning this, but in the meantime you should check, what the Salesforce module returns.
Regards
Lars

Hi Lars,
Thank you for the reply. Below are some screenshots from my scenario. Indeed it is coming in as Buffer, codepage: binary,...
Here is a successful download (with ContentDocument selected)
And here is a failed run (with Document selected)
Does this provide any insight to my issue?
Thank you,
Eric

Hi,
As far as I understand the Salesforce API documentation, you should go for the ContentDocument type of download.
"Represents a document that has been uploaded to a library in Salesforce CRM Content or Salesforce Files"
A Document on the other hand "Represents a file that a user has uploaded. Unlike Attachment records, documents are not attached to a parent object."
To upload the downloaded ContentDocument, I would try to map the Source File directly to the File Content.
Regards
Lars

What do you have as the name for your upload? Are you specifying the file extension?

What do you have mapped as your file name? Are you including your file extension? I ask because that's usually what it looks like when I forget to include that.

I changed the Upload module to Map and added .pdf to the extension. This seems to have worked!
