Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hello,

I've been working on a model driven app that is used for to review candidates and positions.

Currently i have a supporting documents subgrid (which is integrated with a SharePoint library) on the "form A". I would also like that same subgrid to be listed on another form under a different table, lets call it "form B". I tried setting a new document location to the same document location as Form A, didn't work. I'm currently trying to build a flow but having issues as well.

I was wondering if anyone else had any ideas or has been through this before. I want to try to avoid building a pcf control.

Thank you

Hi,

This is a common situation with SharePoint document subgrids in Model-Driven Apps.

The key point is that the SharePoint document subgrid is linked to a specific Dataverse record. You cannot simply reuse the same document location on another table because the documents are tied to the original record.

If you want the same documents to appear on “Form B”, the best approach is to create a proper relationship between the two tables. If “Form B” has a lookup to the record from “Form A”, you can show the related record’s documents instead of trying to duplicate the SharePoint location.

You could also use Power Automate to create or sync document locations, but that can become complex.

Hope this helps.

Thanks!
