Thank you for your clarification. It is unfortunate that Airtable does not allow the upload of files programmatically in the attachment field (see this post and @tatiang comments). > [@Is it possible to use Thunkable As interface to attach any file from my IPhone into Airtable?](https://community.thunkable.com/t/is-it-possible-to-use-thunkable-as-interface-to-attach-any-file-from-my-iphone-into-airtable/1140700/3): > > Airtable only supports files from fully qualified URLs so you might need to try to upload your file to a temporary file server first and obtain the URL of the uploaded file then use it for Airtable. I have not tried it myself but one thing I know is Airtable will not use local file path. Having said that, you can still use the `UpdateRowNum` to update the other fields (columns) in the row such as this ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/9/7/97fb188defc8e817b0362fc965ba87011431fc51.png) For the following table ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/c/3/c3e516c4694a69e572845b825087789d04ec117a.png) It will not work for the block `UpdateRow`. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.thunkable.com/t/airtable-updaterow-and-updaterownum-trouble-updating-row/488290)._
