Users of WEBCON BPS often face the need to export attachments stored in workflows to ZIP archives. Examples for such scenarios are: reducing the size of attachment databases by exporting files to a network share and then removing them from the workflow; starting new workflow instances (using HotFolder) based on ZIP files.
In most cases, SDK plugins are used in these scenarios, as ZIP file creation is not available through standard BPS actions. However, this is possible using the PowerShell solution where scripts can be invoked in WEBCON BPS.
This article presents an example of how to use the "Run a PowerShell script" action (hereinafter referred to as "PowerShell action") to compress all attachments of the current workflow instance into a ZIP archive and save the resulting archive to disk.
