Features of Working with Attached FilesFeatures of Working with Attached Files

The method disk.attachedObject.get operates on the record of attaching a file to a specific object, rather than the file itself. Imagine you have a file report.docx in Drive. When you attach it to a task and a comment in the feed, two different attachment records are created with different identifiers, but both reference the same file.

To obtain the connection identifier, you need to use methods that return attached files within specific objects. For example, when working with tasks, the connection identifier can be retrieved through the method tasks.task.get.
