Cloud - Public Portal - embed most recent document in customer's website

asked on February 7, 2024

Hello,

I had a request from a customer come in involving embedding the most recently added document to their public folder (accessible through Cloud Public Portal) on their website. It sounds like they want the document displayed within Public Portal, and clicking on it would take the user to the document in Public Portal. 

I'm not so much concerned with how it appears on the website - that's for their website people to figure out. But I can't seem to come up with a good way to always point to a specific URL that would take someone to the most recent document. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

There are a few ways to approach this. One way would be to have a Workflow that triggers on document creation. It could capture the relevant info (name, entry id) and send this information back. Maybe it could use a web request to their site. The site would save that and update the "latest document" page.

Or, a Workflow triggering on that same condition could be used to manage a folder of shortcuts to recently created documents. Then embedding Public Portal's browse.aspx to this folder would solve it.

Another approach is an SDK application that periodically runs a search for documents created since the last run, and reads the first result. It then updates a file that the web site reads.
