Hi All,
I am trying to upload files from Power Apps to sharepoint document Library. However the file size is greater than 250 MB. What options can we use to achieve this? My file size can vary from 250MB-2GB.
In case sharepoint is not a good option to upload these large files, please suggest what other platforms can i use from Power Apps to upload and how?
Thanks in advance,
Ankita
The attachment control box has a limit, that limit is 250MB.Do you need to attach the file from PowerApps?

Hi @phipps0218
Yes, i need to be able to upload files from Power Apps. But since the limit is 250 MB of sharepoint List, i want to let it upload to sharepoint document library (which has a limit of 250 GB). However i am not sure on how to allow it from Power Apps. I have tried using Power automate flows, but Power automate also has limits and cannot go beyond size 70-80 MB
Thanks for the link @zmansuri , but it does not solve my issue. I need to be able to upload bigger files, which is not supported by Power Automate or Power Apps.
That link @zmansuri sent will not help because you will reach the attachment limit.I don't think it is possible to achieve this from PowerApps at the moment.
ok, Thanks for the inputs @phipps0218
What is the upper limit to Attachments control in Power Apps? I found this : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/canvas-apps/controls/control-attachments, but it does not have the limit stated.
The limit use to be 10MB but it has been increased to 250MB
It might still be 10MB but there is plans to increase to 250MB
@ankita_jain did you find the solution? we are also facing the same problem
