     • Filepath: Specify the path where the image should be saved.
2. Execution:
   • The activity executes synchronously, saving the image data contained in the document data object to the specified filepath.
   • It uses standard file I/O operations to write the image data to disk.
3. Output:
   • The activity returns aboolindicating the success of the operation:
     • trueif the image was successfully saved.
     • falseif the image data was null or empty, or if the save operation failed.

Considerations

• Data Integrity: Ensure that theDocumentDatacontains valid image data to avoid unsuccessful saves.
• Filepath Validity: Verify that the specifiedFilepathis valid and that the application has write permissions to the directory to prevent errors.
• Overwrite Caution: If a file already exists at the specified path, it will be overwritten without warning. Implement additional checks if this behavior needs to be controlled.
