Agenda SDK Dialog: Interact with the Files app from custom apps
Hello,

please excuse me if this is documented somewhere in the SDK docs but I could not find it. Does the Files app have an API we can interact with?

We would like to place an image file upload in a form in our app, deploy it somewhere (reasonable place would be the Files app but anywhere is fine for us) in a way that it becomes publicly available and retrieve the file URL just as when we click Share in the Files app.

We would like to add / replace / remove such files.

Is this possible or reasonable or the path to go is upload files through the Files app manually and obtain the URL from there?

Regards,
Marc ///

There are several options:
  • There is a client side API for file, "com.innovaphone.files". I am not sure if it covers what you need and also unfortunatly the documentations seems to be empty on sdk.innovaphone.com. I will investigate
  • You can use the dbfiles library to store files in the database of your app service and implement the upload and download yourself
  • You can on top of dbfiles use our webdav library, which you could use to provide webdav access to these files
In the SDK Dialog we can discuss these options and then focus on the one, which covers your requirements best.
