Trying to access file in setting

I have added a file setting field into the settings that I have created but when trying to access it using the TwillAppSettings Face, it always seems to return null when I try to access it. Any idea how else I could access this? TIA.

Hi @Strife You can get the file using the below approach

$brochureFile = A17\Twill\Facades\TwillAppSettings::getGroupDataForSectionAndName('site-settings', 'brochure');
// Below will return the URL
$brochureFile->file('single_file');

$brochureFile = A17\Twill\Facades\TwillAppSettings::getGroupDataForSectionAndName('site-settings', 'brochure');
// Below will return the URL
$brochureFile->file('single_file');

If you file isn't being saved in the settings then you need to make sure that you have included the single_file in your twill config

return [
    'block_editor' => [
        'crops' => [
            ...
        ],
        'files' => ['single_file']
    ]
];

return [
    'block_editor' => [
        'crops' => [
            ...
        ],
        'files' => ['single_file']
    ]
];
