Hey fellow bubblers!
I’m struggling to find a good solution for the following situation:
I’m receiving a file url from an API that I would like to save to my bubble database as a file. The url I’m receiving contains a web link like “https://www.fileexample/29348329.pdf” .
How can I save this link properly to my database and us it in my workflows?
I’ve tried several plugins but nothing seems to work. Hope some of you might now the answer!
If the link never expire, you can save it as a text, just use the URL and when ever you need to download it in user interface, or somewhere else, jsut follow the link.
but if the link expires, and file is public which mean any one can download it, then you need to use API connect , build a call with GET method and Data type as file. and put the url you as as the end_poin, just create a parameter in [url_to_download] and uncheck private and that set pass url and call it it will give you a file in return.
Exemplary link i used for file: https://file-examples.com/storage/fe8d06553067e519a994eaa/2017/10/file-example_PDF_1MB.pdf
Hey @Baloshi69 , thanks for helping out! I actually combined your two suggestions, cause I found the following feature:
Hereby I was able so save the document properly and access it through the editor. Thank you very much!
