    Is Power Platform PG even paying attention to this problem, do we know? It is very frustrating that I have to turn ON a "retired" feature to make a control (file attachment) work in a normal way. A control that is very regularly used, Is there is bug reported with the PG?

    I've resolved the issue by following steps.

    1. Turn on "Legacy formula bar"

    2. This will activate the Name and Value section under Data Card Advanced settings.
    3. Change the Value to AbosoluteUri.

    I've tested all the solutions mentioned here, but I'm still encountering the error. I'm attempting to save a blob file in the attachment data card. This functionality worked in the previous app, but it's not functioning in the new app. Is there a new update for this issue?

    @PeterTadrous @wuhaiqi @GoodPanos 

    Found the reason (kinda temp solution) for the 2 properties not showing. Turn off Power FX Formula Bar. There is a bug which removes the 2 properties - Filename and Value from attachment control. what I do is turn it off, work on the attachment control and then I turn it on. The attachment control holds the changes.

    When I copy the attachment control out of the form control,I face the same problem.And I can not see the filename and value property in the attachment's advanced property panel.I use it to customize the sharepoint list form.

    I have the same exact issue as @ManishM and can only make it work with the Form control. I don't understand what's the difference. I added the exact same formula for the Items property which is basically a Table with the record of the file.

    Thank you for the second video. You are very kind 🙂

     

    My scenario is different from your demo scenario. I use Dataverse and use "File" type column. There is only 1 file allowed to be uploaded to it. This is the same file I would like my users to download. What you are showing seems possible in SharePoint. However, Dataverse stores file uploaded to "File" column in Azure Blob. That could be the case when I cannot see the 2 fields (Name and Value) when selecting the attachment control.

     

    If you could be kind enough to make similar video with my scenario using Dataverse and File" type column, that would clarify a lot of things for me and for users facing this problem.

     

    Thank you so much.
