To | From Attachment Clause on SCL Statement

Every web service call (request) from a client application requires a SOAP Attachment object to submit requests and receive responses. If the request transports data between the client and Web Services, the SCL statement must include a From Attachment or To Attachment clause. This clause specifies the name and location of the file on the client side that is being sent from the client or to the client.

The following SCL requests require the From Attachment clause:

• Element actions Add or Update.
• Upload of package SCL statements.

The following SCL requests require the To Attachment clause:

• Element action Retrieve.
• Fetch of reports.
• Extract of Comma Separated Value (CSV) data.
