PowerApps Attachment Control

Posted on by PriyankaBhatt

Hi,

I have created a canvas app in powerapps which is a document repository along with storing some other related information. All the information along with the attachments are being stored in Sharepoint list. I am using attachments control within a form.

I am seeing an issue where I am not able to upload .xlsm or .csv type of files. Are there any limitations related to file type in powerapps.

When I upload the document directly in sharepoint list, it works fine and I can see the document in both list as well as the app, problem occurs only when I upload the file from app.

I tried by adding EditForm control in Canvas App where I used Attachment control as shown in image. I simply used SubmitForm(Form1) on click of Save button and both file types (.csv and .xlsm) were saved as attachment in SharePoint List Item.

Below is the image of Canvas App Form:

Below are the images for attachment saved in SharePoint List Item:

There shouldn't be any limitations related to file type. Are you able to upload other file types from the attachment control in Power Apps, such as a simple txt text file?

@vipuljain03 Does not work for me, Please note I am using a collection to get the attachments from the sharepoint list and using Patch function to submit as I have multiple forms that need to be saved simultaneously
