How to use the Camera control to attach images but also still use the attachment control to attach other files like PDF.

I am working on a form now that I have the camera control. It will attach just fine but when I try to also attach a file like a PDF it doesn't save in my SharePoint list.  Under my Attachments_DataCard-Update when I put in the "Colimages" from when I save the camera images it will save all my camera images to attach. When I type in DataCardValue13.Attachments will save all my files like PDFs and etc. I was hoping there is a way to make this work

    Hi @rciaverella ,

    You would need a second attachment control - you actually do not need to see the one saving your photos (you can hide this) and the visible one will both display your photos after they have saved and upload files. If you want to make them both visible, then that is fine too (or toggle the visibility when you take a photo).

    HI @rciaverella ,

    Simply unlock the first one and you can added a second with Add Fields.
