Attach a File to the Workflow Server

You can attach a file to the Workflow Server from the Attachments node of the Workflow Administration Console or with the Referenced Object Manager.

The Referenced Object Manager can be accessed in the following places:

Note: When exporting a workflow as a .wfi file, files attached to the workflow definition are included with the workflow definition.

Note: Attachments are saved on the Workflow Server in C:\ProgramData\Laserfiche\WF\ServerData\$. You can configure the root of this path in the Workflow Server File System step of configuring the Workflow Server.

To attach a document to the Workflow Server from an activity or workflow definition

  1. In the ClosedReferenced Object Manager, click Add.
  2. Browse to the desired file, and click Open.
  3. Review the file path and name in the Add Attachment dialog box.
  4. Optional: Type a description of the document in the Description text box.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Optional: Click Add to add another attachment, or select an existing file and click Edit to change the file's name, description, and/or path.
  7. Click Close.

To assign a different attachment to multiple activities in a workflow

Example: The Invoice form has become outdated and needs to be replaced with the Invoice 2012 form. Instead of individually modifying each activity that uses the old Invoice form, you can update all the activities at once with the Reassign option.
