Dont show "file"-Column in CDS Form in a Powerapps Portal

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 41

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

following problem.

 

I have an entity (table) which stores a "file" in a column. All in the Common Data Service.

Now when i add Data to this entity i want to see this Data in a Form to show this Form in a Powerapps Portal.

The idea behind it, is to load a pdf or word file from the portal to the entity shown in the form.

 

But when i put the form in the portal, i see all fields and data except the column with the File.

In Addition i cant add this type of field to a View.
Can anybody help me out?

Cheers and a marry christmas 🙂

    is your "file" stored as a note or is it a base64 content of a file?

    what's the behaviour? can you share a snapshot?

    Hi @TheGreatDensby,

    The File column type is not supported by Power Apps Portal. The only way to work with files in the portal is to use Notes. In regards to not seeing this column in the View - you cannot add File type column to the view as well.
