Attachment Column from List not showing up in Forms
Rob_Elliott Thank you for this! So, I have to do it directly through Forms? I can't build a list with an attachments column (I have this column now, but it doesn't allow me to select it as a field for the form) that then populates the form for attachments? Also, where do the uploaded documents go, if not to a list....
ALISHAR1940 you cannot pre-populate your form with any outside data or select your SharePoint attachments column as a question in your form.
An uploaded file is saved to your personal OneDrive if it's a personal form. If it's a group form it's saved to a folder in the Documents library on the group SharePoint site.

- I think the question is about generating a form from an already existing list. I am also facing the same issue. There is an attachment column in the list. But when i generate a form (by clicking the "Form" option on the taskbar of the existing list), there is no such field as "Attachment". Nor can we add a new field that enables uploading of files. Is there a workaround to this?
Sindhu_Anand I see you are talking about the new Forms feature in Microsoft Lists rather than the standalone web version of Microsoft Forms. There is no file upload functionality with that yet.

Absolutely blows my mind that this functionality is unavailable as part of the new 'MS Form' function in SharePoint lists!
