Optionally store completed task PDFs (signed documents) directly in Salesforce.
Configure PDF storage in the Onboarded™ Setup interface:
- Navigate to Onboarded™ Setup tab
- Go to PDF Configuration section
- Enable Store PDFs in Salesforce
- Choose your storage location preference
- Save configuration
PDFs are stored as ContentDocument records in Salesforce Files.
Pros:
- Centralized document management
- Can be organized in folders
- Sharing and permissions via Salesforce
Setup: Create a folder in Files and specify it in the configuration.
PDFs are attached directly to the related Employee record.
Pros:
- Documents automatically associated with employees
- Easy to find documents on employee record
- No folder management required
Beyond programmatic file retrieval through the API, completed task PDFs can also be viewed on demand from the Employee Onboarded and Workflow Onboarded components: when PDF Storage is enabled, completed task rows display a View Document button that opens the stored PDF in a new browser tab. See the Components page's Task Row Actions section for details.
When PDF storage is disabled, completed task documents remain stored in Onboarded™ and are not automatically synced to Salesforce. For organizations that prefer this approach (to conserve Salesforce storage or for compliance reasons), the Task File Download component provides on-demand access to these documents.
- The component appears on completed Task records when PDF storage is disabled
- Users can view a list of available files for the task
- Clicking "Download" generates a temporary signed URL (valid for 5 minutes)
- Files are downloaded directly from Onboarded™ without being stored in Salesforce
- Navigate to Setup → Object Manager → [Your Task Object]
- Click Lightning Record Pages
- Edit or create a Lightning Record Page
- Drag the Task File Download component onto the page layout
- Save and activate the page
Visibility Conditions: The component automatically hides itself when:
- PDF storage is enabled (files already sync to Salesforce)
- The task is not yet completed (no files to download)
- The record is not the configured Task object
Requirement: The
completed_atfield must be mapped in your Task object field mappings for the component to detect completed tasks.
