Displaying a pdf file from Base64

[pkolinski]

I used external service to download a file content in Base64 and forwarded it to DocumentList.

How I can do it in ScriptCode?
There are special parameterization for it?

You need to prepare two ScriptServices:

1. First service:
   a. The first service is connected as an external data source of the DocumentList.
   

   
   
   b. It takes input parameters from Form and prepare output for Document List:
   
   
   
   
   fileName - the name of file displayed on Form
   fileMimeType - file types for pdf is application/pdf
   source - type of document source for our purpuse it need to be externalDocument
   documentServiceName - name of the service that returns the contents of the file ( If the
   second service is also ScriptService we need to add ‘script:’ prefix before the service name
   documentServiceParams (optional) - list of parameters that we want to pass beetween first
   and second service it looks like: parameter1=value1&parameter2=value2…

2. Second service:
   

   
   
   a. Can gets the parameters that we pass from first service
   b. The return file need to be base64 encoded and the return variable name need to be ‘output’
