@b__ManalK, Are you talking about OOTB attachment option or attachment type field?
In Variable attributes you can restrict the attachment type by extensions.( allowed_extensions=pdf;csv etc.)
Also the possible types can be configured in this system property (glide.attachment.extensions)
Thanks & Regards,

I used to the system property (glide.attachment.extensions), to define the extensions allowed for all attachments coming from whatever table but , there's that one catalog item that we want to allow extra extensions for it, I tried to the ( allowed_extensions=pdf;csv etc.) methode as you mentioned and add the extra extensions but if they are not already mentioned in sys property they get blocked too.

What's the extension type, is there any business limit not to add that new attachment type as part of glide.attachment.extensions?
