Select Attachments for Export

If you have set the export type to Section Level or Manual Data Selection, you can use the Attachments pane to choose which attachments to include. For other export types, attachments are not included.

Attachments Pane

For image attachments, the icon shown may be a thumbnail of the actual image. However, if the original image is oversized, a generic icon is shown instead. In System Administrator, you can use the View > Universal Preferences > Image Binary Limit (in Bytes) option to specify the maximum size image for which a thumbnail is generated.

  • To choose which attachments to include, select or clear the check box next to the description of each attachment.
    Warning messages appear if you attempt to select more than the recommended number or the maximum number of attachments. If you have already selected the maximum number of attachments, you are not allowed to select any more until you have deselected another attachment. The recommended and maximum limits for attachments are configured in the Data Share module settings.
  • To view details about an attachment, hover over it.
