Hi,

I am facing some strange issue with saving attachments to sharepoint list. I have a couple of use case like while creating initial request I am submitting the form and it is saving attachments. Next case where when user wants to resubmit the request and I want to make old one obsolete ( change the status field) and create new record with content from old record. I am just using the submitform and rest of the fields are saving properly but attachments picked from old (obsolete request) are not saving.

attachment properties are as follows.

Update: DataCardValue25_1.Attachments

Items: If(varcopy || varRR || varSL, LookUp('CETOAPP',ID = varCI.ID).Attachments, ThisItem.Attachments)

On submit button, I am just using SubmitForm(EditForm1_1)

Any advise will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @gcnaren ,

You cannot save attachments from another item that way. You would need to use Power Automate to copy the attachments from the original record and then add them to the new one.

You could set the ID of the old record to a Variable and then on the OnSuccess of the new form get the second one with Self.LastSubmit.ID then run the flow getting the attachments off the first item and then adding them to the second one.
