Question

Hi Community,

I’ve this requirement where a specific user must run a specific Process. In this process, there should be a set of tasks that must gather all the attachments of the current record and generate a ZIP file with these attachments. Furthermore, this process should also download the ZIP file to the user’s computer.

Any idea on how can I achieve this requirement?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Hello Pedro,

Unfortunately, your task can not be achieved using the basic logic of Creatio. There is no possibility to generate ZIP files from attachments.

Also, you can not download some files to the user's computer automatically until he does not download them manually.

Hi there! We recently uploaded an application to the marketplace 
that allows you to download all the files of a section, example of an 
account, in a ZIP file. Possibly it is useful for your use case or 
to check how it was done. 
Check it here https://marketplace.creatio.com/app/download-zip-button-creatio

Thank you

Uriel,

Thank you for the response. We manage to find a solution for our requirement. However, If we get another use case like this one, we will have your application in mind.
