Hey guys I need help with this:

 

My powerapps app lets the user upload files with the attachment function, then another person can see what he uploaded in another screen, and also upload another file, but the thing is that I need this two files in another screen but it only shows the first file and not the second, why this happens ? How can I let someone see the files that are uploaded in different moments ? Also I need to say that the files must be shown according to an exact ID from sharepoint, for example Sharepoint item 1 has two files uploaded in diferent moments, those two must be shown in a different screen

Please help! 

 

King regards

Julian Osorio

    In this case, I would use related lists instead of adding attachments to the same record repeatedly.

    You have a parent list, then in your Attachment1 list, you create rows with a reference to the parent, so you create a column called 'parentID' which lists the parent ID of the item you are creating attachments for, then you do the same with the second list. Now when you save the attachments to the other lists you add in the ParentID field so that there's a way to reference them with regards to the parent list.

     

    You can then use collect() and a gallery (or just a nested gallery) to display all related attachments to the parent record.

     

    Cheers,

    Sancho
