Displaying Attachment Data with AutoText

Information about attachments present on the app or scenario can be displayed in a custom view by using the AutoText component.

This is achieved by adding the data-text attribute to an HTML element.

The tag name of the attachment must be specified, along with the name of the field that you wish to display:
  • filename: The filename of the attachment.
  • description: The description of the attachment.
  • tags: A comma-separated list of all tags present on the attachment.
  • lastModifiedDate: The date when the attachment file contents were last modified.
  • lastModifiedUser: The name of the user who last modified the attachment file contents.
  • hidden: Whether or not the attachment is hidden in the UI (either "True" or "False").
The examples below demonstrate how to use the data-text attribute: 
The filename of the app attachment tagged with input-sheet is: 
<span data-text="attachment:app/input-sheet/filename"></span>

The description of the scenario attachment tagged with result-chart is: 
<span data-text="attachment:scenario/result-chart/description"></span>

<!-- For scenario attachments, the "scenario/" prefix is optional: -->
The scenario attachment tagged with input-sheet was last modified by: 
<span data-text="attachment:input-sheet/lastModifiedBy"></span>
A ScenarioObserver must then be created, and bindAutoText called, passing a CSS selector which matches the HTML elements to be populated: 
var view = insight.getView();
view.withFirstScenario()
    .bindAutoText('span[data-text]')
    .start();
If no attachment exists with the specified tag, the HTML element will be populated with a fallback message, The attachment is not currently available. An alternative message can be specified using the data-fallback attribute. For example: 
The filename of the app attachment tagged with input-sheet is: 
<span data-text="attachment:app/input-sheet/filename" 
      data-fallback="No input sheet has been uploaded">
</span>
