File download url

Dear Users,

Creator support uploading of files through the file upload field in the form. Once a file is uploaded, you can download that file through the view. And each file download link in the view will look like the one below

http://creator.zoho.com/DownloadFile.do?filepath=/1248931841640_dsc00007.txt&sharedBy=user1&appLinkName=SampleApp&viewLinkName=Sample_View

The url contains file id (filepath), user name, application link name (appLinkName) and view link name (viewLinkName).

We had certain inconsistencies where it worked in certain certain cases without the application link name and the view link name. Those inconsistencies have been removed. Now wherever you try to construct the file download url, user should definitely give all these parameters.

Note : Only exception is that, when you constructed a formula field using the above link to render the images uploaded in the fileupload field. In those cases, we will append the application link name and view link name even if it is not there when displaying the view.

Thanks,
Hariharan
