Hi All,

I have a powerapps for leave req submission, previously it works just fine. But now the attachment section is not linking to the sharepoint. So every time someone submit the form, the attachment is not send eventhough the person already upload it. And it always show unsaved, is there any correlation? Any kind of help is appreciated, thanks!

I did not change any formula on my submit button its always been like this

Patch(
 ListLeaveRequestbyUser,
 Defaults(ListLeaveRequestbyUser),
 {'Leave Type':Gallery2.Selected.'Leave Type'.Value},
 {'From Date':StartDate.SelectedDate},
 {'To Date':EndDate.SelectedDate},
 {'Number of Leaves Day':daysdiff+1}, 
 {'Name (Title)':DataCardValue1.Text},
 {'Employee No.':DataCardValue4.Text},
 {Department:DataCardValue6.Selected},
 {Company:DataCardValue7.Selected},
 {Position:DataCardValue8.Text},
 {Attachments:DataCardValue13},
 {'Name Manager':DataCardValue5.Selected},
 {LeaveID:{'@odata.type':"#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.Sharepoint.SPlistExpandedReference", Id:Gallery2.Selected.ID, Value:Gallery2.Selected.Title}}); 
 Notify("Leave Applied Successfully",NotificationType.Success); 
 Navigate('My Leave Request');

Hi @safiranrd ,

It should not have worked in the first place as you cannot Patch Attachments like that. The only way is to use the Attachment Control with either SubmitForm() or Patch(YourFormName.Updates)

@safiranrd ,

Yes (replace), but you would need to add the items that are not sourced from the Form. You would also need to ensure that your Data Card Update setting on each card reflected what you have in the Patch.

You need the list you are patching to

Patch( ListLeaveRequestbyUser, Defaults(ListLeaveRequestbyUser), 'Form Request'.Updates )

Tried the formula, the attachment is still not showing. There is this unsaved note in the attachment box, is there any issue that correlating with this unlinked attachment issue?

@safiranrd ,

If you want the attachment to show immediately, use SubmitForm() instead of Patch or set your Form back to View Mode after the Patch. Also the Item of the Form needs to be directly querying your List in both cases.

@safiranrd ,

I assumed from the complexity of your posted code that you had a grasp on the principal of writing data from a Form/Controls - I was responding to your posted question regarding the attachment.

I suggest you use SubmitForm (go back to basics) and it all should save properly.
