Question
Generation of word document within a case
I am currently performing an assignment and entering some details. On submit of the assignment I want a word document to be generated capturing all the details entered in the previous assignment. It should also get attached to the work object.
How do I do this?
Thanks for the reply Marc. It is an exclusive requirement to generate a doc file and not a PDF.
Please find the below article which might be helpful.

Hi Kanap2,
Thanks for your reply. Can you please explain me how do we map properties from clipboard in the word template?
Thanks in advance.
Call the pega_appdefinition_documentapp.pzGenerateDocument pass template,class names.Above function returns the url of the file generated in server temp folder path then write java logic to read file stream using file url
Get the filename from the returned i.e pega_rules_string.whatComesAfterLast(url, '/');
Open file using pega.getStaticContentUtils().getServiceExportRoot(); + filename and read the stream.
Use filestream as your pyAttachStream for your attachment page and set other properties for attachment page
Hello,
It might be easiest to do it with a PDF with the Create PDF shape. Would that work for you?
