Choose between external sources and keep filename for module attachment

You could link to the document in a button block? It wouldn't tell you what type of document it is though...

Hi Nisha, thanks for your suggestion. And, yes the button block is an alternative, but I think the attachment module would be best if the function could keep the filename.

Hello Johan - Thanks for sharing your thoughts :) I'm submitting this feature on your behalf. If you have any other ideas, you are always welcome to share here.

Hello Leslie,

Thanks for submitting the feature request to retain the filename of the attachment file. The randomly named file is making my learners nervous about downloading our lab data files. 

Thanks,
Karen

Hello Karen!

Would you be willing to share the attachment file with our team? We'd like to test it from our side to see if extra characters are added to the file name when downloading the file. 

If that works for you, you can share the file privately by opening a case here.

Hi everyone! We fixed the issue in Rise 360 where extra characters were added to attachment block file names. Please have a look, and let us know if you have any further trouble with your attachment blocks!
