Add another attachment column - SharePoint List
Hello, community,
I wanted to know if in a SharePoint list you can have two columns that have attachments?
Any help is appreciated, regards.
Jvenegash fernandorojas This is by design in SharePoint. It is not possible to add multiple attachments columns to a single list.
However, it is possible to upload multiple files as attachment in the attachments field of an item.

ganeshsanap Thanks for this info, could you please tell me how can I show the multiple files of an item? I can only see one attachment per item.
Thanks in advance!

- No,
There is only one attachment column in the list...what you could have is different hyperlink columns, but I understand this is not what you are looking forThanks for the answer.
And how does this hyperlink column work? How can I simulate this thing I want to do, making two columns of attachments?
As jcgonzalezmartin says it's not possible to recreate the attachments column, it's a systems column that can't be recreated. The column he mentions allows you to add a column to your list that you can use to point to other resources.
I've added an image of the list column below that you'd see on the NewForm.aspx / EditForm.aspx. Filling these out would result in a clickable link being visible in the list item
