I have a choice field on my start form that I’d like to make required based on whether or not an attachment has been added to the attachments field. I don’t need to be able to read the attached files or have any data other than an indicator if something is there or not. I have not been able to figure this out.

Is it even possible? Help!

Yes!

Create a form variable that uses the count function to count the number of attachments:

 

Then reference that variable in a form rule:

 


Thank you so much ​@BarryCairns! Follow-up question, might be a bit tougher…

While this worked perfectly in my form in general I seem to not be able to get it working within a repeating section.
 

Thoughts?


You need to go one level further into the structure of your repeating section:

 

You will see Current row in the object

 

 

Click into Current row and then do the count on the file upload there

 

 

 


Got it! Worked perfectly! Thank you!
