&lt;p&gt;In particular, this is because any file you upload to the upload box is kept in a hidden temporary location in the Appian filesystem and not moved to its target folder until the form is submitted, again in the context of a process model.&amp;nbsp; Thus even if you were able to enable one on a Site, it would never actually work, in terms of uploading your file where you want it to go.&amp;nbsp; When you&amp;#39;re looking at an interface in the Interface Designer, however, the functionality is slightly less locked-down just so it&amp;#39;s more testable for designers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: why a!fileuploadfield can upload file at Interface but can't on site?</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/89326?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 24 Dec 2021 09:11:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:b75c59bf-4017-4ff3-836c-a0e54aa26f46</guid><dc:creator>immortalvirgil</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;By the way, do you know how to solve &amp;quot;...invalid contentID...&amp;quot; error for import excel into database function?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: why a!fileuploadfield can upload file at Interface but can't on site?</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/89325?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 24 Dec 2021 07:33:13 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:7bb65128-d637-4260-8085-b7f41e545298</guid><dc:creator>immortalvirgil</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you so much~!!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: why a!fileuploadfield can upload file at Interface but can't on site?</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/89324?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 24 Dec 2021 07:29:37 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:e53f6b8a-802c-4543-9a53-6c51c4fdaabf</guid><dc:creator>VaisakhSekhar</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Please follow the below steps:&lt;/p&gt;
