Is there a simple way to display File attachment in entity list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 55

I have a "file type" field I am wanting to put that in an entity list although it looks like you can not show File  field types within a view 

 

is there a way around this? basically wanting an entity list with a document associated with each record to be clicked on and downloaded from within? 

 

I was thinking about having a seperate portal form that opens up when the record is clicked but wanting to try and avoid that if possible 

 

Many thanks

    Hi, at the moment File types are not supported in Power Apps Portals.

    A workaround for this, would be having your image as a note, and with a few tricks around URLs and JS, you can have in a downloadable format.

    I wrote an article with similar requirement that might be useful: http://oliverrodrigues365.com/2020/05/24/power-apps-portals-generate-and-download-word-document-from-an-entity-list/

    Hi @OliverRodrigues  !

     

    First of all thanks for your awesome guide, yet I am not able to achieve it 100% like described in your blog  http://oliverrodrigues365.com/2020/05/24/power-apps-portals-generate-and-download-word-document-from... 

     

    I created the Workflows and the columns get filled with _entity/annotations/{NoteGuid} and with the JS the download button also appears fine.

    However if I click the button this shows up:

    Do you know why this happens? Maybe I did something wrong along the blog post 🙂
