Do we have a “help” channel? Trying to make an api call to create a record with an attachment field and running into issues. Thanks!

use storage API : upload or uploadByUrl to add attachment file into storage;

1. First you have to upload file using our storage api - NocoDB API Documentation

2. Use the response from storage api and provide the attachment column as JSON array of attachment( response from first one )

- NocoDB API Documentation

Sample payload ```json

{

“title”: “abc”,

“attachmenttColumnName”: “[{"url": "string", "fileName":"string", "mimetype": "string", "size": "string"}]”

}

```
