Hello,

I created a connector that should receive a pdf as a response, but instead, it receives “RESTBinaryResult” instead.
How can I convert this “RESTBinaryResult” to a blob or a file object?

Thank you,
Radostin

Hi Radostin,

Does the RESTBinaryResult output contain the base64 data of the PDF?

If so, you can use the Client-Side Business Object function ‘ITIZ_Utilities’ – ‘B64toBlob’ from our Standard Content to convert the base64 data to a blob.

Hi Jennifer,

Is it possible to get the blob of the file, directly from the connector?

Like in Javascript  XMLHttpRequest we have a property to set the response type to blob.

xhrInSign.responseType = “blob”

With the input parameter ‘configuration/http/body/binaryResult/format’, you can control the format of the binary output result. The format options are described in the advanced configuration documentation for REST connectors.

If these format options are not suitable for your use case, you can still convert the base64 output to a blob, e.g., inside a Client-Side Business Object.
