Multiple files attachment in a record for new user interface

This feature enables you to upload or download multiple files to record attachments. Prior to this implementation, you could upload only one file at a time to record attachments using the file uploader dialog and download the file by clicking on the attachment file items listed in the right-side panel.

Note: The default file size validation for attachment across all tenants is 20 MB. Changing this configuration for cloud tenants might affect the data and document usage charges. For On-Prem customers, this is a straightforward change as it is on the customer's infrastructure. To change this to 10MB follow the below steps.

System Configuration
  1. Open {install-dir}/profiles/IS_default/configuration/tomcat/conf/RN/networking.properties
  2. Add attachmentsFileSizeMaxLimit=10000 (Units in KB)
