HTML Client Considerations

Changed:

<
<

Downloading files to the HTML client normally requires a Local Connector (See AppxHTMLClient for a discussion of the Local Connector). Starting in Release 5.4.5, you can download files without the Local Connector. See .CLIENT CHECK FOR GUI to how to determine which client the user is running.

You have 2 options to send to the client without using the Local Connector:

Prefix the destination file name with $(pushAndOpen), e.g. $(pushAndOpen)/openthis.pdf). This tells the HTML client that you want the browser download the file and to try to open it. If the browser doesn't support opening that file type then it will ask the user to save file, which is normal browser behavior. The file will open an a new tab in the browser for one time viewing, i.e., the tab cannot be refreshed or the link shared.
