Rest call / Send an uploaded file to a REST web service

[r_kister]

Hello,

I work on a process:

In this process, a file is uploaded in a form. And then, a would like to use a rest call task to send this uploaded file or his url to a REST web service.

is there a way to do this : i don't know how to get the url of the uploaded file and use it in the rest call task.

Can you help me.

Raphael,

Documents that are uploaded are saved into the Activiti database.
You can retrieve the link to the content via REST API (details here), or you can use a Java Delegate to push to your external repository using the contentService bean (not documented).

Hope this helps,

Greg
