One of the new features of MxLoader 7.2 (NextGen) is the capability to upload and download files from Maximo.
Any text field can be exported to a file by simply prepending the attribute name with FILETXT: prefix. In this example, all the long descriptions of assets will be exported to text files under the Assets subfolder.
In a similar way, it is possible to upload large text from a file with a similar syntax. Note that in this case you don’t need the FILETXT: prefix in the header.
It is also possible to upload binary data using the FileEnc: prefix. For example you can upload attachments as described in this post.
Uploading and downloading files with MxLoader
Can we upload a photo through maxloader?
Yes you can. Photos are binary files so you must use the FileEnc tag.

Thank you for this wonderful resource to upload attachments into Maximo using MxLoader. I need some more information on this as can we upload the different file formats into maximo like .tiff,.cad,.xml- etc files using this Sheet.
