Considerations for case attachments in a repository

Host your application in a single system, because tenants in a multitenancy system can access your files.

Use the D_pxGetFile API to access the contents of an attachment.

Ensure that the service package of your email listener enforces basic authentication.

Configure your email listener with an operator whose primary application uses the repository that your application uses.

Repositories support file attachments only. All other types of attachments are stored in a database.

You cannot change the content storage type from repository to a different type.

You cannot modify the configuration of a repository after the repository is in use.

Application attachments that you provide on the Application form are always stored in a database.

You cannot search for attachments, because they are not indexed.

Pulse attachments that you provide on the Application Overview landing page are stored in the repository only when your session is already authenticated or the repository supports non-interactive authentication.
