Filter by attachments?

[Nhan Hoang]

Hi everyone,

Usually we can add various columns when viewing a list of User Stories or Features. Is there an option to show which work items contain an attachment on the list? I do not see a column called "attachments". Is there another way to list or filter by records with attachments? Thank you.

Hi Nhan,

You should be able to use a query in a custom list to show work items with attachments like this:
(Attachments.ObjectID != null)

Thank you, David. My apologies if I am misunderstanding but I do not see a free-form query field to type in that filter condition. I am looking a the list of User Stories under the Plan tab. I clicked the "New Custom View" option but "attachment" is not present in the drop-down of available fields to query by (please see attached screenshot).

Sorry Nhan, yes that would be when using a Custom List or Custom Board app.  Sorry I wasn't more clear on that

Thank you, David. The query box app settings for Custom List and Custom Board work nicely. Thanks again!
