Bella Attach VF generated PDF
I have a pdf document generated from fields on an opportunity. I need to then attach it to the opportunity it came from. So far I have code that looks like this:
Http h = new Http();
HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
req.setEndpoint('https://c.cs2.visual.force.com/apex/PDF?Id=' + o.Id);
req.setMethod('GET');
HttpResponse res = h.send(req);
Attachment a = new Attachment(Name = 'Attachment Name', ParentId = o.Id, Body = Blob.valueOf(res.getBody()));
insert a;
When I run it, it clreates an attachment and attaches to the right opportunity, but the attachment itself is not the pdf but rather some small text file that reads:
The URL has moved <a href="https://cs2.salesforce.com/visualforce/session?url=https%3A%2F%2Fc.cs2.visual.force.com%2Fapex%2FPDF%3FId%o.Id">here</a>
Can anyone help me figure out what's going on? Again, all I need to do is take a pdf generated by a vf page and attach it to the coresponding opportunity. Thanks!
why so complicated with the http requests? Here is an example from the VF docu:
VF PDF attachments
in this example they create an email attachment, but you can do the same with an attachment to the opportunity
