Overview

File processing apps allow you to add support for new custom file formats and customize processing for supported file formats.

Custom File Format

File Pre-Import

File Post-Import

File Pre-Export

File Post-Export

Using External Storage

By default, File Processor apps use the filesFolder as a temporary folder to store large responses. But this can be overridden:

index.js

configuration.{file-process-type}.storeFile = (content) => {
  // logic to store file, e.g. put it to AWS S3
  return '<url-to-download>';
};

To properly work with large files in AWS Lambda, you can set the AWS_REGION and AWS_TMP_BUCKET_NAME environment variables.

These can also be overridden:

index.js

configuration.awsConfig = {
  tmpBucketName: 'tmpBucketName',
  region: 'region'
};
