# How to: Store file attachments in the azure file instead of the database (XPO)

- Add in agnostic module AzureFileDataModule

```csharp

///  

/// Required method for Designer support - do not modify 

/// the contents of this method with the code editor.

/// 

private void InitializeComponent() {

    // 

    // AzureFileStoreXAFModule

    // 

    this.AdditionalExportedTypes.Add(typeof(DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.BaseObject));

    this.AdditionalExportedTypes.Add(typeof(DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.FileData));

    this.AdditionalExportedTypes.Add(typeof(DevExpress.Persistent.BaseImpl.FileAttachmentBase));

    this.RequiredModuleTypes.Add(typeof(DevExpress.ExpressApp.SystemModule.SystemModule));

    this.RequiredModuleTypes.Add(typeof(DevExpress.ExpressApp.Objects.BusinessClassLibraryCustomizationModule));

    this.RequiredModuleTypes.Add(typeof(AzureFileData.AzureFileDataModule));

}

```

- Create a property in your BO

```csharp

    [DefaultClassOptions]

    [FileAttachment("File")]

    public class FileSystemStoreObjectDemo : BaseObject

    {

        public FileSystemStoreObjectDemo(Session session) : base(session) { }

        [Aggregated, ExpandObjectMembers(ExpandObjectMembers.Never), ImmediatePostData]

        public AzureFileStoreObject File

        {

            get { return GetPropertyValue("File"); }

            set { SetPropertyValue("File", value); }

        }

    }

```

- Set in web.config the name of share folder in azure and [connectionstring azure](https://docs.microsoft.com/it-it/azure/storage/files/storage-how-to-create-file-share?tabs=azure-portal) 

 

![Azurefile](AzureFileStoreXAF.Module/Images/AzureFile.png)

```xml

```

- Set parameter in start code (event login ect)

```csharp

AzureFileData.AzureFileDataModule.AzureFileConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ConnectionString"];

AzureFileData.AzureFileDataModule.AzureFileShareLocation = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ShareName"];

```

You can upload file > 4Mb but you must set in web.config

```xml
