Hi All,

We are developing an application with Perspective 8.1.16, where we are using Perspective App in mobile devices (ios devices). Between the features, it is required to take a pictures with ios devices (iPad), and save them in a specific location( i.e sftp, network, server/ forlder).

Thus, by levering the iPad’s camera “pictures can be taken”, we wonder which the best way to save- send/ point them out to a specific location into the network as file (jpeg, png, gif, etc)?

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Thanks

You will need to use a file upload component. In the upload event script, you will have to deliver the file content to the desired target, using jython running on the gateway.
