We are pleased to announce the public preview availability of file data type for use in Power Pages. The capability is released with the website version 9.4.7.x.

With this feature support now, makers can build web pages to provide upload / download files stored in the Microsoft Dataverse  tables. Makers are now enabled to accomplish this configuration easily on web pages without having to code.  With the file column support in Power Pages, makers can

  • Use Web APIs to build rich custom user experiences that perform CRUD operations on file columns.
