My system saves annotations as XFDF strings in the DB.
Therefore, the attached file data will also be saved in the DB.
I don’t want to overwhelm the DB, so I want to save file data in storage.

Annotation.getAttachments() API return value,
content is compressed data of the attachment.

Can I get or set data from it?
(If so, I would like some sample code.)

Or is there a better way?

Best Regards.

Hello Okabe,
You could try and use the following code snippet:

const xfdfString = await instance.Core.annotationManager.exportAnnotations();
localStorage.setItem('annotations', xfdfString);

You can also pass annotationList within exportAnnotation to select which annotations you want to export. You can read more about it here: Apryse WebViewer Class: AnnotationManager
