Select Attach to open the Attach file(s) side panel. To upload files, select + to open the file selection dialog box.
Select the required files from your device, and then provide one or more descriptive tags for each file. Tags should help others understand what the file is about.
After selecting all the files to upload, select the Upload button to upload all the files to Environmental Credit Service (preview). Leave the side panel open until the upload operation completes so you know whether the files were uploaded successfully.

If a file upload fails, an inline error displays just below the file. Based on the error, you can either try uploading the same file again or upload another file.

If you’re using a different Azure storage, you can just attach the URI reference of the file from your existing storage. This URI reference should be publicly accessible by Environmental Credit Service (preview).

Add the URI and the descriptive tag. If you want to attach more than 1 SAS URI, select + to add more. After adding all the file URIs, select Attach to attach them to the asset.
Select Close to close the side panel.
