Details

 

The File Attachment object allows app users to click an Attach button and select a file for uploading. Once the file is selected, the file is uploaded and the file name is displayed in the read-only text field. After a file is attached, the push button changes to a Detach button to allow the user to remove the file.

 

The type and size of the files attached can be specified by the app designer.
