The attachment variable

The attachment variable is used to store any file attachment in Bonita. As the attachment is internally stored in the database as Binary Large Object (BLOB), this gives the flexibility to store any kind of file attachment, regardless of the extension.

Another way we can represent data in Bonita Studio is to use an XML variable to store data in the XML format. Relevant data can be represented in a concise way using XML. For creating this variable in Bonita, simply select the data type as XML. Here, we have to choose the XML namespace and element for the data. We can also add a new schema by importing an XSD file.
