Overview

This node operation downloads a document from the ecoDMS system using a specified document ID. It is useful for retrieving stored documents for further processing, archiving, or sharing within an automated workflow. For example, a user can automate the retrieval of invoices or contracts stored in ecoDMS by specifying their document IDs and saving the downloaded content as binary data in the workflow.

Use Case Examples

1. Download a document by its ID and save it as a binary file for further processing or sending via email.
2. Automate the retrieval of archived documents for backup or audit purposes.

• mimeType - The MIME type of the downloaded document file.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for ecoDMS to authenticate and access the document download endpoint.

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the Server-URL is configured in the ecoDMS API credentials; otherwise, the node will throw an error indicating the server URL is missing.
• Verify the document ID is correct and the document exists in ecoDMS to avoid errors during download.
• Check network connectivity and API permissions if the document download fails.
