Example

In this example, we will generate a PDF from HTML and return the PDF file to the user.

Steps

  1. First we add a button component onto the canvas, and name it btnGeneratePDFFromHTML.

  2. Then we also add a label named lblResult which will display the PDF file once it is generated.

  4. We click on the btnGeneratePDFFromHTML button from step 1 and select "Actions". We add the pdfGenerate function first. We add a setComponentValue to the flow, for when pdfGenerate returns true.

  5. For pdfGenerate function, open the inspector and add the following parameters:

    type

    html

    value

    <html><body style="font-size:120%">This is the pdf content</body></html>

    result

    share

  6. For setComponentValue function, set the component to the label lblResult we created in step 2.

Result

When the user clicks on the button, it will generate a PDF with the text "This is the pdf content".
