Hi everyone,

In C/AL, I used CopyServerFile function in Codeunit "File Management" but it's not work in A/L.
an error occurs like this Error:The type or method 'CopyServerFile' cannot be used for 'Extension' development.
So, there is another way to browse a file from client then upload it to server?


Thanks,

    You can also set your target in app.json to internal and use CopyServerFile from codeunit 419.
    For help, do not use PM, use forum instead, perhaps other people have the same question, or better answers.

    When you uploadintostream the data is in your stream, not in a file.
    you need to work with your stream instead

    Thank you for your reply. Now I use DOWNLOADFROMSTREAM function to locate the file from stream.

    Thank you very much,
