How to read the content of a text file from an incident record attachment:

 GlideSysAttachment API is used to handle attachments.

With this API,

  • we can copy attachment from one record to another
  • read the content of a attached file as text, base64 or content stream
  • write the content
  • read all attachments of a record and also we can delete any of the attachment of a record

var attachment = new GlideSysAttachment();
var incidentSysID = '136e85931bc8fc1037fc4263cc4bcb46';
var agr = attachment.getAttachments('incident', incidentSysID);
gs.info(agr.getRowCount());
while (agr.next()) {
var attachmentContent = attachment.getContent(agr);
gs.info('Attachment content: ' + attachmentContent);



Output: 
x_67546_crusher: Attachment content: Vamshi Vemula
