Within there is a demo how to upload a file with an Hmtl User Dialg (JSF): see /FileUploadSimpleModeDemo.ivp</p> <p>If you are trying to start a dedicated new case if a file was pushed to the server, you can either start a new case with a trigger activity or use the file pickup start event bean.<img alt="alt text" src="http://answers.axonivy.com/upfiles/filePickupStartEvent.png"></p>Reguel WermelingerMon, 16 Nov 2015 15:13:39 -0500https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/1559/how-to-post-a-file-to-a-start-ivp-requests-start/1560
