Absolutely (assuming you're using Freedom UI pages in the portal). You can create custom components for any Freedom UI page. The fact that it's a page for external users does not limit the capabilities in any way.

If you're using classic pages in the portal, you can create custom elements, but the support for components isn't anywhere as complete as it is for Freedom UI pages.

Ryan

For classic details, rules implemented on the page are also manifested in the list for the detail. I believe you can just implement the filtering for the lookup on the page for the detail, then it will work in the list as well. 

Thank you Ryan  for your answer!
Actually, my detail is an editable grid. I noticed that the page-level lookup filtering doesn't propagate into editable grids automatically. From my tests and observations, the editable grids seem to require explicit filtering logic within the generateActiveRowControlsConfig method instead.
Could you please confirm if this understanding is correct, and perhaps suggest any best practices or examples explicitly for editable grids?

It would look like this - I typically also add Type=4 for users (although that’s a little redundant) and also add Connection Type=0 to get employee users (not external/portal users). 

Basically, from your screenshot, click "Quantity". Then set count > 0 (or click count to change to exists), then add the sub-conditions under that.

Ryan Farley,

Thank you Ryan for your time and help! This solution worked for me. 

Hello,

In order to create the mask for the text field you can add a handler that will apply formatting to the text field value when user are typing.

You can use the following code snippet as an example:

{
	request: "crt.HandleViewModelAttributeChangeRequest",
	handler: async (request, next) => {
		if(request.attributeName == "PDS_SCCPF_luo5kno"){
			let value = await request.$context.PDS_SCCPF_luo5kno; 
			value = value.replace(/\D/g, ""); // Remove non-digit characters
			if (value.length > 11){
				value = value.slice(0, 11); // Limit to 11 digits
			}
			let formatted = "";
			if (value.length > 0) {
				formatted += value.slice(0, 3);
			}
			if (value.length >= 4) {
				formatted += "." + value.slice(3, 6);
			}
			if (value.length >= 7) {
				formatted += "." + value.slice(6, 9);
			}
			if (value.length >= 10) {
				formatted += "-" + value.slice(9, 11);
			}
			request.$context.PDS_SCCPF_luo5kno = formatted;
 			request.preventAttributeChangeRequest = true;
		}
		return next?.handle(request);
	}
}

Thanks so much.
It worked wonderfully.

Hi,

Yes, starting from version 8.x, Creatio uses dependency injection (DI) more actively, including for services like IFileRepository, which is now resolved via ClassFactory.Get<IFileRepository>().

To override the default implementation, you can register your custom class as the default for the interface in the dependency container.
 

Solution: Register your class for the interface

You have to create your own AppEventListener and bind your class to the appropriate interface there.

public class UsrAppEventListener : AppEventListenerBase
{
	public override void OnAppStart(AppEventContext context) 	{
		base.OnAppStart(context);
		ClassFactory.Bind<IFileRepository, CustomFileRepository>(reuseType: ReuseType.Singleton);
    }
}

Where:

• CustomFileRepository is your custom class that implements IFileRepository
• ReuseType.Singleton (or None) depends on your usage

⚠️ Important: Ensure your class fully implements the IFileRepository interface.

This way, when FileService calls ClassFactory.Get<IFileRepository>(), it will receive your custom implementation.

Hi Irina.
I finally manage to upgrate creatio properly so i can try your sollution.
write now i gut such error

Terrasoft.Core.InstanceActivationException
 HResult=0x80131600
 Message=Error creating an instance of the "Terrasoft.Configuration.IFileRepository" class
 Source=<Cannot evaluate the exception source>

Matching bindings:
 1) binding from IFileRepository to FileRepository
 2) binding from IFileRepository to UsrFileRepository

Suggestions:
 1) Ensure that you have defined a binding for IFileRepository only once.

My class is describe like that

    [Terrasoft.Core.Factories.Override]
   public class UsrFileRepository : FileRepository.

can you give me a hand :)

Hi Iryna;
I find solution
I used rebind except bind.
thank you for help

Hello,

First you should add Process file element to your business process where you can get the file and keep it for further usage in the process.

Then in Script Task you can retrieve that file and apply encoding. You can use the following code as an example

var files = context.Process.FindFlowElementByName("ObjectFileProcessingUserTask1").GetPropertyValue("ObjectFiles") as ICompositeObjectList<ICompositeObject>;
foreach(var file in files)
{
	if(file.TryGetValue<EntityFileLocator>("File", out EntityFileLocator fileLocator))
	{
		IFile fileItem = UserConnection.GetFile(fileLocator);
		using (System.IO.Stream stream = fileItem.Read())
		{
			/* Retrieve the file content and save it to the array. */
			var content = stream.ReadToEnd();
			var encodedContent = Convert.ToBase64String(content);
			Set<string>("EncodedFile", encodedContent);
		}
	}
}

Here ObjectFileProcessingUserTask1 is the name of Process file element in the business process.

Also don't forget to include Terrasoft.File and Terrasoft.File.Abstractions namespaces to the business process. In order to do that open the business process designer, go to the Methods tab and add the namespaces to the Usings list.

You can find more information about file processing in the articles:
https://academy.creatio.com/docs/8.x/no-code-customization/bpm-tools/process-elements-reference/system-actions/process-file-element
https://academy.creatio.com/docs/8.x/dev/development-on-creatio-platfor…

Thank you so much for the response.

I have successfully compiled my BusinessProcess, but how do I access 'EncodedFile' in my other tasks?

For example, I want to display it inside Auto-generated page, but I don't see my ScriptTask among my Process Elements in Formula window.

Please have a look at the “Process parameters” tab, as the result of the script execution is written to the “EncodedFile” process parameter

Considering it is a Base64 string, which process parameter type should I choose? Unlimited length text?

Also, I would like to get image width and height in the code and save it to parameter as well.

How can I get them in code?

Since Base64 string might be long Unlimited length text type will be a good choice for the parameter that will be used for storing it.

In order to get and save image width and height first you have to create 2 process parameters of type Integer (e.g.  ImageWidthParam and ImageHeightParam). Then in Script Task you can get the values using the following code:

using (System.IO.Stream stream = fileItem.Read())
{
	using (Image img = Image.FromStream(stream))
	{
		Set<int>("ImageWidthParam", img.Width);
		Set<int>("ImageHeightParam", img.Height);
	}
	/* Retrieve the file content and save it to the array. */
	var content = stream.ReadToEnd();
	var encodedContent = Convert.ToBase64String(content);
	Set<string>("EncodedFile", encodedContent);
} 

Also add System.Drawing namespace to the business process the same way as you added Terrasoft.File and Terrasoft.File.Abstractions namespaces.

Thank you so much for the replies!

Only thing that doesn't work is that EncodedFile seems to be empty.

When I try to print it inside AutoGeneratedPage as a text field it shows nothing, and when I forward it in a WebService .json body to my API there is no data.

Process file element is fetching last 10 records from uploaded files, I tried looking up uploaded files and there are test images there, so there should be valid input to my ScriptTask.

Is there something about Process Parameter "EncodedFile" that I should set up differently except setting its type as Unlimited length text? Everything else I left at default values.

The problem that EncodedFile parameter is empty could be that the stream position is at the end, so when you call stream.ReadToEnd(), there's nothing left to read.
You can update a proposed code a bit to make sure that stream position is not at the end before reading from it.

/* Retrieve the file content and save it to the array. */
var content = stream.ReadToEnd();
var encodedContent = Convert.ToBase64String(content);
Set<string>("EncodedFile", encodedContent);
using (MemoryStream imageStream = new MemoryStream(content))
using (Image img = Image.FromStream(imageStream))
{
	Set<int>("ImageWidthParam", img.Width);
	Set<int>("ImageHeightParam", img.Height);
}

Also I would recommend to debug Script Task code in Visual Studio in case you have some issues to make sure that it's executing as expected.

Hello Sarangarajan,

As we understand, you want to specify an additional header besides Bearer in the service request. If so, you can do this by simply adding the header in the web service settings.

You may find more information in the "Set up the REST web service integration" article.

Best regards,

Anhelina!

In the above case 
x-ms-date: {Generated RFC 1123 Date}  -- value need to be current date and time in RFC 1123 format -- that how do we set it up

Hi Samir,

We can see that you submitted a case to our support team. We will continue our communication there.

Have a great day!

Alina Yakovlieva,

Thank you for your assistance. Could you please let me know once you have an update regarding this issue?

I appreciate your help.

The command "clio ver" shows the version of the Clio command line itself. The error is mentioning the version of cliogate, which is a package installed on the Creatio system. 

To check the version of cliogate, use: 

clio ver --gate -e dev-env

To install or update the cliogate on the system, use: 

clio install-gate -e dev-env

Ryan

Sorry, missed that you mentioned the version of cliogate is up to date already. I've not experienced that issue. 

It seems there might be an issue with the connection between a clio and your dev. Try installing the gate again:

clio install-gate some_application_name

And then restart the dev:
clio restart some_application_name

 

This message only appears when dev-env does not have cliogate package installed,m  you can validate it with  `clio packages -f cliogate`. 

You should see something like this. If nothing comes back, then you need to reinstall cliogate. 

Use `clio gate -e dev-env` to reinstall cliogate

Dmytro Vovchenko,

I got an exception on this:

clio install-gate -e dev-env

Artem Ivzhenko,

according to the trace of the error the request to login either timed out or returned an error. This might be also related to the fact that dev apps are shut down automatically in case there is no activity in the dev app for the past 60 minutes. Try the following steps:

1. Open the login page of the dev app in the UI and make sure it's loaded.
2. Wait for 1-2 minutes (for the app to completely initialize after starting).
3. Try executing the cliogate install once again.

Please let us know about the result.

Oleg Drobina,

I followed the steps you outlined above and I still get the same error.
I don't understand why a connection error occurs, especially since the ping command returns:
[INF] - Done ping-app.
At the same time, other developers connected to the same environment are working without any issues.
I am not connected to a VPN or proxy server.

Oleg Drobina,

In my understanding, a timeout error should not occur immediately after running the command, but rather after some time has passed, since a timeout cannot happen within just one second.
In my case, I receive the error right after launching the command, without any delay.

Artem Ivzhenko,

Hello, the issue was resolved in the clio version 8.0.1.27. Thanks for your attention. In this version, we fixed the situation when the config file URL uses a form like 'HTTP(s): my-creatoio.com/' with '/' in the end.

You can use tags. The File objects have a Tag field, you can set up each file list to have a different tag, then the tag will get added to the file based on which list the file was added to, and the lists will also filter by this tag.

To do this, you simply need to enter a tag name for each of the file lists, just type in a value in the File tag property: 

Ryan

Ryan Farley,
