Mail Adapter: original Attachment filename retrieval in Proxy

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a Sender Mail Adapter, and the receiver is a proxy, where I need to get the attachment and its details.

When I execute

attachment_filename = l_attachment->GET_DOCUMENT_NAME( ).

it simply returns Attachment-1 etc.

How do I get the original attachment filename?

I am on SP16.

Hi All,

I solved the problem.

It is possible in SP16 also, without using adapter module.

I simply retrieve the value of

l_attachment->GET_CONTENT_TYPE( )

in a string.

This gives me both the MIMETYPE, as well as the filename.

An example is:

application/msword "filename.doc"

Thanks.

Regards,

Puloma.

Puloma,

Can you let usk now where you use this<b> l_attachment->GET_CONTENT_TYPE( ) </b> ?

What i mean to ask is, inside a UDF? If yes, can you provide the entire UDF code here?

Thanks

Hi Bhavesh,

No I don't retrieve the filename in the MM.

I need it in the receiver proxy.

There is no UDF.

Stefan's answer is with respect to retrive the Attachment name inside XI and not inside of a proxy and that is why I got confused.

Thanks for the clarifications.

Yes, it is in a different context. It is also possible in SP16

Hi,

The above links do not solve my problem.

I need to extract the original filename on the Receiver side, so extracting the filename in Adapter Module does not help.

Any ideas?

In SP16 it is not possible to get the mail attachment name.

In SP20 you can use an adapter module to read the attachment name and store it anywhere in the payload.
