Help - App to download documents

[recelect (Patrick Jiles)]

Hi all,
I’m on Epicor Kinetic SaaS (2025.1.11) and building a small Application Studio app.

Goal:
I want to be able to:

1. Scan or enter a PartNum into a text box.
2. Select the active revision in a grid or combo.
3. Show a second grid with all documents (attachments) related to that PartNum + Revision.
4. Multi-select those documents and click a “Download” button that uses the Download Attachment (Kinetic) function to download the selected files locally.

Current progress:

• I have a working BAQ Data View that filters by PartNum and shows all attachments.
• The grid populates correctly with XFileRefNum, XFileName, etc.
• I added a “Download Attachment (Kinetic)” widget, and it works if I hard-code the XFileRefNum value.
• What I can’t figure out is how to bind that widget to the currently selected row(s) of the attachments grid.

Question:
How do I pass the selected row’s XFileRefNum (or all selected rows) into the “Download Attachment (Kinetic)” widget in Application Studio?
Is there a specific syntax for referencing the grid’s selected row field value (like @{RecDocSearch.XFileRefNum} or similar)?

I don’t have a full answer for you but I had never goten a row-current-set widget to work before I found this guide. It’s specific to finding and setting a specific row and not necessarily multiple selected rows but it’s a starting point.

App Studio, Events, Row-Find - Working example,

Posting this because of a long battle with getting Row-Find to work, hoping some others may find it helpful. (there are a couple of other posts related to this issue) I always got an “Errors in criteria parser” error because could not get the syntax quite right, or I’d get the syntax to the point where there were no errors, but the incorrect value was returned. Example, I needed to find a specific row in OrderDtl given a previously saved OrderLine number and then make that the current row us…

There is a Selector property you can activate in the grid. With that active, you could use a dataview-condition widget to check where you selector value is true and point your iterator to that file download event you made.
