Check if file already exists on Dataverse

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 69

Hello!

I have an attachment control that uploads files to a dataverse table (with File column). I am already able to check if a file with the same name already exists, but I was wondering if there is any way to compare if a file with the same CONTENT, or exactly the same SIZE, exists.

 

This would be required as a safety feature. Comparing the field "Value" is not helpful, because it is stored as "appres://..." like string, and not the base64 string, and it differs based on record id, and not really the file content.

 

Any help is appreciated.

Regards
