Send file with AJAX and method POST from a new page with a connected user

Fri, 13 May 2022 14:11:30 +0000

Hi all,

I try to create a new page for a connect user. but I don't know why, I can't send an ajax request with a file parameter.

when I test my code without select a file in my html form and submit, all is good, a log file is created and this console log message : "value : undefined" appear (it's undefined cause I don't give a file)

But when I select a file, I haven't file log created and an empty message in the console.

I don't understand why I couldn't send a file from ajax ?

here my html code :

<%LoadMacros("MacroDesktop")%>
<html>
<head>
    <%UseScript('js/config/require.config.js', fixedpath=T, data-custombase='%%GetCustomBase()', data-dealerbase='%%GetDealerBase()')%>
    <%Macro('RequireConfigDealer', evaluate=T)%>
    <%Macro('RequireConfigCustom', evaluate=T)%>
    <%UseScript('../lib/js/vendor/require.js', fixedpath=T)%>
    <%UseScript("scripts/Base", fixedline=T)%>
    <%UseScript("custom/Custom", fixedline=T, ifexists=T)%>
    <script>
        function Loaded() {
            requirejs(['jquery'], function ($) {
                $('#upload').click(function () {
                    var url = 'dialog?_macrofile=MacroAjax&_macro=RunScript&file=test&func=myTest';
                    var element = document.getElementById("fileupload");
                    var myfiles = element.files;
                    var data = new FormData();
                    var i = 0;
                    for (i = 0; i < myfiles.length; i++) {
                        data.append('file' + i, myfiles[i]);
                    }

                    $.ajax({
                        url: url,
                        type: 'POST',
                        contentType: false,
                        data: data,
                        processData: false,
                        cache: false
                    }).done(function (msg) {
                        console.log(msg);
                        if (msg.match("class=\"efficy-error\"")) {
                            $('body').html(msg);
                        } else {
                            $('form').append("OK");
                        }
                    });
                });
            });
        }
    </script>
</head>
<body onload="Loaded()">
<form enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="file" name="fileupload" id="fileupload" /><br>

    <button type="button" id="upload">Upload</button>
</form>
</body>
</html>

and here my serverscript file :

/*
@import ReaderPOST from serverjs/ReaderPOST
*/

function myTest()
{
    strSaveTextFile("C:\\path\\myTest.txt", "", false);
    var value = "\ntest : " + Request.argument('myArg') + "\n";

    value += "utf8Content :\n" + Request.utf8Content + "\n";

    ReaderPOST.init(Request.utf8Content);

    strSaveTextFile("C:\\EfficyWebServer\\myTest.txt", value, true);
    return "value : " + ReaderPOST.getValue("file0");
}

Someone have an idea why my script isn't even executed (no file log => function isn't exectued)

EDIT

I went a little further, and realized that what was causing the problem was the formData. When he is empty (no file selected) the function wanted is called but when he is not, I don't know what happen in the black box but my function isn't called.
Someone know why ? It is an Efficy bug or intentionnal behavior ?

Really thanks in advance for your help !

Error closing DataSynchroRemote when used with a commandline

Fri, 25 Aug 2017 10:52:34 +0000

For a customer we built a DataSynchroRemote to import data from an Excel sheet into Efficy. When performing the import within the DataSynchroRemote user interface, the import is completed without any errors.

When starting the same DataSynchro from a commandline (with the .dat-file as the commandline parameter,) the import is processed correctly, but an error occurs when the application is closed after completing:

Projects file importer

Fri, 14 Apr 2017 09:03:45 +0000

Hey guys,

A customer would like to have an additional import button.
Would it also be possible to add this importation functionality in the opportunity page by the project team, or is this hardcoded, since it requires the new sidebar addins?

KR,
Gert

[2014] Remove Efficy Field mapping

Mon, 07 Dec 2015 16:49:40 +0000

Hi all,

Is there a away to deselect / remove Efficy Field mapping in Easy Import Wizard?

Or should all Excel columns be explicitly mapped?

Some fields in our Excel file for import do not need to be imported and Efficy auto-assigns them an incorrect field.

Thanks in advance!

Import launched from Interface.

Thu, 28 May 2015 06:48:32 +0000

Does anyone has already made an import launched from the interface ?

In this case, I need to make it possible to import an Excel file with a fixed layout from the Company Entity to link contacts.

Has anyone done this before ? And how to do this in Efficy 2014 ?
