upload multiple images in a d365 form?

I am looking to upload multiple images in a form and show it against a contact or account. Also even after i add the image field in the form it doesn't show up on the fields in the forms.

Please guide me as i am new to d365. Thanks

Hi Partner,

Do you mean that you want to upload files as note in timeline?

If so, there are 2 approaches to achieve multiple files upload function:

1. Import a solution called "AttachmentUploader" into your Dynamics

https://github.com/ramarao9/AttachmentUploader

Then drag any of simple line text field to form, set the control to AttachmentUpload,

set the "ControlNameForRefresh" property of control to a static value: Timeline(SingleLine.Text),

and check the "Hide Default Control" option. (As the solution home page said, we need to also uncheck the "Display label on the form" option.)

When everything is configured well, we can find that the field is replaced with a file uploader, multi-upload feature is supported by the control.

These selected files will be uploaded as notes in timeline.

2. The approach 1 is a simple extension, if you would like to have enhanced using experience for file upload and management, then you could check other 2 solutions on D365 app center.

However, you might need to purchase a license to use them.

In addition, for your second question, "even after I add the image field in the form it doesn't show up on the fields in the forms."

Did you add the field to form in powerapps form editor? And please check whether you have clicked "Publish" button.
