at the time, they definitely fix that bug because I had been working with a client to purge thousands of files attachments and they did fix the bug.
If you can actually prove to Quickbase support that that is once again happening then that would be a legitimate bug.
I have a pipeline that ran yesterday and deleted a file attachment. The format I am using is:
API_EditRecord&rid={{a.id}}&_fid_6=&delfile_fid_6=1&vid=1
How many revisions of the file do you retain? (See field definition.) In my configuration, only 1 revision of the files are retained; therefore, vid=1 deletes the only revision. See: Upload and download files – Quickbase Help
