Attachment Filename and MimeType in CloudCode

General Q&A
1

Hi folks

How do I access the filename and MIME type of an attachment in CloudCode?

In the App / Runtime I can call getFilename() on an attachment, and based on the file extension I can assume the MIME Type, but I cannot do this in CC for some reason

@forumfred I had the same issue, however, I was able to extract it from the attachment URL by using RegEx in CloudCode:

function getFileName(attachment: Attachment): string {
    const regex = /https:\/\/\S+\/(\S+)\?\S+/gm;
    const results = regex.exec(attachment.url());
    console.log(`Results ${JSON.stringify(results)}`);
    return decodeURI(results[1]);
}

I hope that helps.
