Adding File Attachments

For Web connections between a SmartServer and a Web Connection Target server (a Web server that
can process SOAP requests), which are referred to as enterprise connections, you can attach a file on
your SmartServer to the request messages sent over the Web connection. You can send a data log, an
alarm log, an event scheduler log, or any user-defined file stored on the SmartServer. Do not attach
files to Web connections if the destination is a SmartServer or an OpenLNS Server (internal,
peer-to-peer, and LNS uplink connections). These Web Connection Destinations will remove any
attachments they receive via a Web connection.

To add an attachment to an enterprise connection, follow these steps:

1. Under the source data point icon, right click the reference to the target data point in the Web

connection, and then click Add Attachment on the shortcut menu.

2. The Select Attachment File dialog opens.

3. In the Type property select the type of file to be sent with the message request: Alarm Log, Data

Log, Event Log, or User Defined (this is the default).

4. In the Name property, select the file to be attached.

If you select Alarm Log, Data Log, or Event Log, select the name of the log file to be
attached. The names displayed are the locations of the logs on the SmartServer tree in the
