Hi  
We have recently got access to partner api. Can anyone share sample xml snippet for file record call as we are unable to file attachments. Getting Invalid (-1) error response.

You have the file to be uploaded on the same server as your api?  
The filename in the XML matches this?  
The file can be accessed by the API?

Hi.  
Thanks for the reply. I have kept the file in the same folder where EMIS is installed. Yes the filename in address field is same. But getting error Transform Failed: \nObject reference not set to an instance of an object. If there is sample xml snippet it will be helpful.

If you can post what you have I can check it against our transform?
