Attachment

Users can now attach files to a form to provide meaningful content. The file attached by the sender can be of any type.

The new Attachment Macro can be inserted in a form to allow users to attach files. The attachments can be downloaded from the responses saved in the Internal Response Database and the received emails. 

A Confluence administrator can configure the maximum size of attachments using Confluence's Attachment Settings.

 Limit the size of attachments
  • Navigate to Confluence administration> General Configuration> Attachment Settings.

  • Edit the Attachment Maximum Size. 

  • Save the updated settings.
