AttachmentExtractor plugin file access behavior

Tue, 02 Apr 2019 14:47:12 GMT

This blog article outlines the AttachmentExtractor plugin file access behavior if your service stops running. Please consider the following information:

The plugins are license independent and will work regardless of the service's license state.

SharePoint:
The plugin will always return a file as a .url link if it cannot access the stream.

For Server2Server authentification the file access to stream the content of a file is requiring the service to run. The reason is that a new JWT token has to be created once every hour, which is not possible from within the plugin.
Please notice: You must switch to Office 365 to have access to your attachments after stopping a service.

Using Online Office 365 login is independent of the AttachmentExtractor service and will be able to access the file streams, as long as the credentials are valid.

AzureBlobStorage (ABS):

ABS is independent of the AttachmentExtractor service and will be able to access the file streams, as long as the SAS-Token is valid.

That’s it! We appreciate your feedback! Please share your thoughts by sending an email to support@mscrm-addons.com.
