Button to download all attachments files

[ShulzR]

Hello,
In version 5.1.2, I used an extension written by my friend, which allowed me to download all attached files as .zip file.
This was very helpful when several files were attached and you didn't have to download each file separately.

I'm attaching link to an extension, maybe someone will be able to adapt it to the latest version 7.3:

Hi,

I'll try to see if I can do anything.

Working on it:

Cool. Good luck Kharg!

In the meantime and ever since I start using EspoCRM, for many documents I just download it through a browser extension (DownThemAll). I probably will continue using it even if this extension get added because it ZIP the file doesn't it?

Which is good for certain circumstance but not always.

[Kharg]

esforim I think it could be made into an option whether to zip all files or download them as they are.
But then the browser may block it if the page sends too many downloads.
I'll be experimenting.

Extension is almost completed, I will just try to see if I can implement mass downloads without zipping before releasing.

Thank you Kharg !

Unfortunately, when I try to download attachments, I get the following error:

You have to enable the php_fileinfo extension from your hosting settings.

[ShulzR]

Now it works! Thank you Kharg so much!

[Kharg]

Perfect! Keep an eye out for updates!

[ShulzR]

Kharg Would it be possible to extend the functionality to download attachments also attached to the Stream?

[Kharg]

ShulzR Hi, it already does that.

You just have to enable the option in settings

Hi. That is really great. Thank you very much

Is there a way to use that to generate a link to send via mail to someone, to download the zip, with a formula?

[Emmker]

Because the user could have uploaded as many images as he wants, and that would render the email unsendable.

[esforim]

The answer is no.

You can try to use the Public Attachment extension. There is a free and paid version.

[Kharg]

Or you could just add noauth to the entrypoint in the extension so that the link can be accessed without login.

How to install the package? When trying to upload it on the Extensions field, it won't recognize it as an installation package

[shalmaxb]

unpack the downloaded zip, enter the folder and zip the folders files, script and the manifest.json into a zip, which then will be installable.
Obs., that you mark the mentioned folders and the file all together and then zip them.

[Kharg]

You will find the packaged extension in the releases section.
