Attachments is a predefined configuration of the Item List component that displays attachments. Attachments has similar search, sort, filter, export, and restore defaults capabilities as Item List. The Export action isn’t included by default, but can be enabled via configuration. Attachments shows attachments for specific change requests. For each attachment, Attachments displays attributes which you can choose via configuration.
For ThingWorx Navigate 9.3.4 and later versions, the default attributes are Name, File Size, Description, Last Modified, Modified By, and External Location. The Name attribute displays the value that was displayed by the File Name attribute in ThingWorx Navigate 9.3.0 and previous versions. The name also shows the file type. You can click a name to download the attachment or navigate to the linked webpage. If the Name attribute is removed via configuration or tailoring, there’s no download link available. The File Name attribute, as seen in the following image, displays only the name of the file. The following is a sample image showing the Attachments predefined configuration for ThingWorx Navigate 9.3.4 and later versions:
For ThingWorx Navigate 9.3.0 and previous versions, the default attributes are FILENAME, FILESIZE, DESCRIPTION, LAST MODIFIED, MODIFIED BY, and EXTERNAL LOCATION.
