Is there a way to store attachments gathered during a workflow in a variable. this allows/help to easily open the attachments directly from the form , rather downloading them from the email when they are attached.

We have noticed that there is no option to insert any attachments into the tasks, only into emails

Hi @Palk,

 

This is a commonly requested solution.
The way that customers resolve this issue is to show the links to the files from the list item on the task form.
The second option is to have a parallel branch that executes after the task action has been executed that copies the files from the list item to the task item so that they are attached to the task form.
