Open file in power page table

How can I open a file that is stored in this file column? This file comes from a multi-form in power pages. I don't understand why you can't just open this file.

    Hi, that snapshot seems to be from the back-end? can you confirm from where you want to open the field?

    Hi @OliverRodrigues 

     

    Yes this snapshot is from the back-end. I would like to open the field in power pages or in Dataverse. Thanks for the response!

    Hi, apologies but we really need more information on where the issue is

    I use that feature often in projects and can confirm that it works OOB with no issues

    Hi @OliverRodrigues 

     

    I have a multi step form on my power page where users can upload files and these files are stored in a field in my table. However, I am unsure how to open these files that are saved. I only see a paperclip icon and am unable to open the submitted files from the form. My teacher mentioned that I can access these files through integration with SharePoint. But I have no idea how to set that up.

    I wouldn't focus on SharePoint right now.

    Do you have a model-driven app with your table setup so you can view the data? 

    This video might help as a starting point: Power Apps Model-Driven Apps: Tutorial for Complete Beginners (2023 UPDATED) (youtube.com)

    what you should do here is make sure to setup a MDA that you will be able to view the data, including forms / views pointing to your tables, and from there you should be able to see the files.
