Hi

As the headline says, how can I generate a pdf in Studio and pass it back to UiPath Apps and display the context in a Document Viewer?

I cant find AppsFile in studio as an argument.

Well not quite, I would like to pass the file as an out argument of the process, instead of uploading to the dataservice/storage bucket and download it from there.

Can you pinpoint where in the documentation it says anything about usin appsFile as an out argument in an process? I can only see the use of Dataservice or storage Buckets, and I would like to avoid using those from a maintenance perspective.

Hi @Michaeljep,

If you don’t want to use storage bucket of UiPath or any other cloud storage. You cant achieve your goal as this storage buckets acts as a place holder for your file.

Just think, if file not available on cloud, How come the app shows that document?

If it solves your issue, kindly mark as solution :slight_smile:
