UCM File Upload During Flow Submission

Use the UCM File upload facility to upload data onto the Oracle WebCenter Content Server directly from the flow submission page.

For example, you have taken over a new company and you need to upload large volumes of employee information. You can upload the data from a file on your local computer onto the UCM server using the Submit a Flow page. You can then submit a flow to retrieve the information from the WebCenter Content server and upload it onto the Oracle database application tables.

For flows that support upload of files, the upload and transfer of data is as given below.
  1. Use the Upload File button in the Parameters section of the Submit a Flow page to search and select a data file from your local computer, and upload a file to the UCM server. The file must be in a format that's compatible with the UCM upload process.
  2. After you have uploaded the file, complete the other parameters for your flow and submit the flow as usual.

  3. A UCM Content ID is automatically generated for the upload and it's displayed on the flow submission page.

  4. The flow uses the UCM Content ID to retrieve the information from the WebCenter Content server and upload it onto the Oracle database application tables.

If required, you can upload another file for the flow. For instance, after uploading the file, you realize that you have uploaded the wrong file. Use the Upload File button and select the correct file, and resubmit the upload process, to upload the correct file to the server.
