I need to find the documents that i have uploaded to Bonitasoft on ended cases. The version that i am using is 6.3.7 Comunity. I have been trying with end user and with admin user but i cant find the option anywhere, in menu “Cases-\>Archived” I just can see the fields that I have populated like the name of a client or phone, but I have uploaded a Word document in have been impossible to find it.

Hi,

The files are stored into the database and to access them after ended case, you will need to use the following document api to retreive them :  
[http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/javadoc/api/6.3/org/bonitasoft/engine/bpm/document/ArchivedDocument.html](http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/javadoc/api/6.3/org/bonitasoft/engine/bpm/document/ArchivedDocument.html)

Best regards,  
LL

thank you for your answer, but could you please be more specific on how can i use the code. On de link there are no examples justo only this line of code:

documentURL = documentMapping.getDocumentURL();

Do i have to import a library? How can i specify the document that i need to get the url.

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

You’ll find some pointers on which library to import and how to get doc and use the API.  
[http://community.ofelia.com/answers/how-get-document-pool-subprocess](http://community.ofelia.com/answers/how-get-document-pool-subprocess)

You’ll need to adapt also the function to the one you need getDocumentURL.

There are some other sample codes on how to handle documents here :  
[http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/handling-documents](http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/handling-documents)

Hopefully it helps.  
Regards  
LL
