Attached files show up in the submission but are not included when the report is emailed

    The uploaded files show up in the submission archive, but they are not included with the completed form when it is auto-emailed to other managers after submissions.  How can I get the attachment to follow the forms when they are distributed to others?

    I have checked the email notification and see that the File upload fields are not included in the email and hence they are not being displayed. You may edit the email notification to add the image fields to it.

    Alternatively, you may add a new notification to your form so that all the fields in the form are automatically added to it and then delete the existing notification.

    Hope this information helps!

    thank you for your help.
    I have added the field to the email contents and it now carries the attachment through to the distribution.
    Very much appreciate your accurate, and timely, assistance.
