Paste pdf from clipboard to container field inside Filemaker Go not working?

Featured Replies

Hi, I am copying a scanned pdf on my iPhone and am passing the clipboard to FilemakerGo via Shortcuts. 

Inside my filemaker file, I am running a script to paste the clipboard into a container field.

 

While this works with images, it does not work with pdf files.

 

Am I on the wrong track to do this?

Or is FilemakerGo not able to copy the clipboard into a container field?

 

I tried to do the same copying the clipboard into the mail app and it works perfectly. 

Thank you

Are you copy/pasting or inserting?

Thank you- I am copying / pasting. 

The idea came from the implementation that is using the url scheme to pass the clipboard to filemaker Go. But this is working with images from the camera roll.

I also tried to pass an iCloud link back to filemaker that is generated via shortcuts and to use insert from URL but that needs user interaction, the link asks the user to download.

If there is another scripted option, I could also use it.

Thank you.

Just a follow up for those reading. 

I reported the issue to Claris, and now it is working.
