Forms 10 base64 signature script to use in Workflow 10 update Word tool?

Version 10 Forms Workflow

Updated June 25, 2019

asked on February 17, 2016

My use case would be to have a form that is filled out on-site at a customers location. The customer agrees to the work that was done and signs off on it via this form. Form data hits LF workflow on the back-end then a Word doc template (formatted to be appealing to the customer) is filled out with all the relevant data, including the signature, PDF is generated from the Update Word tool, emailed to the customer and saved for retention in the repository.

Question:

Now that Workflow v10 has the "Update Word" tool, is it possible to take the Form's generated signature, as a base64 image, and apply via script to a Word doc template? If so, could someone provide what that script would look like?

I have tried and I getting lost on how to end up with an image I can use.

No, the signature image can't be used in Update Word Document at this time.

Thanks for the answer.

Just to be clear, there is no script to convert the base64 URI that is captured using "Retrieve Business Process Variables" that could be run in the workflow prior to providing the input to the Update Word Doc activity? When the signature is pulled and put into a text field it is a base64 URI.

I apologize, as my coding is not strong.

Hi guys,

It was mentioned at the Empower Summit event in Edinburgh that adding a Forms signature to a Word document is now possible out of the box, but I can't find any documentation that describes how to do this.

Do you know what the syntax is, as I can't remember

Cheers, Dan
