Has Attachments Control

Posted on 14 Feb 2019 13:52:50 by

Hello, 

 

I am trying to use a flow that looks to see if a list item has an attachment.  If not an email is triggered to the editor to request they add an attachment.  My list contains more than 12 lookup colums so I am forced to Limit Columns by View.  My issue is that when I do this flow no longer recognizes that a list item has an attachment.  Every instance returns value of "false" even though there are attachments in certain cases.  

 

I have tested this in a list w/o 12 lookup columns and when I don't Limit Columns by View the control works as intended.  Any ideas why flow doesn't recognize attachments when I Limit Columns by View?

 

Thanks, 

 

Mike

    Hi @9mikejacobs,

     

    I have made a test on my side and don't have the issue that you mentioned.

    The flow would recognize attachments when I Limit Columns by View on my side.

    The screenshot of my flow as below:

    The flow would run successfully as below:
