Posted on by

there is a new file field in Dynamics, but if try to use ind on a form, it's not possible to change it to : "required".

My main objective is to have a file field required if another field contains data.

if someone has a tips or a small piece of code to do that, it can help me a lot.

thanks.

    Hi Partner,

    None of the normal requirement tools can work with file fields. This is likely due to the file being stored in Azure Blob. You can’t require it at the field level, and you cannot require it with a business rule, and you cannot check if it contains data via workflow.

    Use business process flow and make the field required in the process flow.
