Storing Attachment/Image Files to Other Locations Rather than a Database

How to store attachment/image files to other locations

When using the media input on a form you can associate attachments with forms data that can include photos, videos, audio, and other file types. Along with storing attachment/image files to a database, you can store attachment/images files in the following manner:

  • Set up an attachment connection and put the images in a Windows or Azure file share.
  • Set up a file drop connection in addition to the Azure or Windows file share, if you want to store attachments in another location.
  • Specify attachment options for individual attachment types (photos that are stored one place, videos another place, etc.).
  • Set up a file storage data map to store an attachment, image and field data from an attachment, or image at a certain location.
