Add another attachment column - SharePoint List

Copper Contributor

Hello, community,

 

I wanted to know if in a SharePoint list you can have two columns that have attachments?

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 for

Thanks 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 @Juan Carlos González Martín 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

@fernandorojas hi fernan can you find any solution? i need that feature too.

 

Thanks!!

 

@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!

 

@SarahAbdelrazek You can have only one attachment "column" per list item, but you can attach multiple files in that one attachment column like:

What I have is actually a list for a Microsoft Form. I'm using Power automate to get responses. Do you have an idea how can I see the multiple attachments that are uploaded by a user?
