How to read a file stored in one drive in business central

Posted on by M Hussnain Javed 241

Hello experts,

Hope you're all doing well.

Is there any way to read a file stored in one drive? 

TempBlob.Blob.CreateInStream(IStream);
FileName := 'microsoft.jpg';
DownloadFromStream(IStream, 'Download File', '', '*.*', FileName);
I found this code that helped in downloading a file from an online link. But this code didn't work with an one drive link. I want to download or read a file from one drive. Is there any way to perform this functionality in business central. Answers will be highly appreciated. Thanks for reading.

    Hi MahGah,

    Thanks for replying. Actually I've a requirement to read a xml file from an online link and store it in a XmlDocument. Have you any idea that where should I upload that xml file and then how can I access or read that xml file from an online link?

    Out of the box there us no support for reading xml files automatically from onedrive.

    You can customize the system to read files from an Azure blob storage or you can manually import files.

    Hi

    As Inge mentioned you can use Azure or combination of FTP and Azure Logic app . See following articles
