Open file in HTML

Hello,

I have installed Document Server and Community Server. I would like to open the files I have on my Community Server (My documents section) in a HTML file, here is my code :

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://documentserver/web-apps/apps/api/documents/api.js"></script>
<div id="placeholder"></div>
<script>
  new DocsAPI.DocEditor("placeholder", {
    "document": {
      "fileType": "docx",
      "key": "machin.docx",
      "title": "machin.docx",
      "url": url???
    },
    "documentType": "word",
    "height": 800
  });
</script>

But I don’t know what to put for document.url ? I tried the url that opens the document on the community server (http://my_ip/Products/Files/DocEditor.aspx?fileid=my_fileId) but it doesn’t work properly… the file content is wrong :

Could you help me please ? Thank you in advance :slight_smile:

Hello @mra,
Documents module is not intended to provide document links that you can use in the editor initialization config. You need some other file storage for that.

Hello @Carl ,
I tried to run the Java Spring Example from here (ONLYOFFICE Api Documentation - Example), can I use it as a file storage ?

Then I could use http://java_spring_example:4000/new.docx, as document.url, is that right ?

I managed to upload files on it but when I try to open them I have some errors :

  • One on the editor : “The document could not be saved. Please check connection settings or contact your administrator”

  • From converter : (DocumentServer/Log/converter/out.log)

No, this is incorrect. You need to have a file storage where you can place a document and get a download link. Integration examples are not intended for that either, their purpose is to demonstrate how the document server interacts with the document storage application during document editing, they do not serve files for downloading.
If you need a simple file storage for test purposes, you can use this:
