Upload

Overview

The Upload component allows a user to attach Files or Attachments to a record within Salesforce. Upload components may be placed within a one or two column section, but they will always occupy the entire width of a section.

Upload Configuration

Below are the configurable attributes of the component.

Field Description
Field label Enter text that will appear to the left of the component.
Upload as Select File or Attachment. If you are using Lighting, then you should always use Files, since Attachments are not searchable or editable in Lighting.
Multiple Controls whether multiple files can be uploaded. If “False,” then the option to add a new document will be removed after a file has been uploaded. If “True” then a user can upload multiple files.
Maximum File Size Set the maximum size of a file that may be attached.
Supported File Format Set the file formats which may be uploaded.
