Overview of Using A SOAP Service to Upload Attachments in Oracle Maintenance

Use the ERP Object Attachment SOAP service to perform the automatic, mass upload of attachments for maintenance assets, maintenance programs, maintenance work orders, maintenance work order operations, maintenance work order operation materials, maintenance work order operation resources, and maintenance work definition operations. You can specify the input parameters for the payload of this service to upload attachments.

By using a service-based approach for uploading attachments, the initial data load from an external source system or ongoing updates can be streamlined into Oracle Maintenance.

To get started, refer to the information provided in the Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials SOAP Web Services for Financials guide.
