Instead of clipping the file uploaded in the form, register it as a separate document in the same cabinet as the form's storage location, us
It would be helpful if, during form configuration, users could choose whether to save attached files as clipped documents or register them as independent documents.

Thanks for the comment.
As a use case, I want to attach around 10 different types of documents to a single Form.
Ideally, I’d like to attach 10 files to a single “Add Document” field and register each one as a separate document, without merging them into a single file.
As you commented, with an API call, it’s possible to delete only the first section of the template, and you can remove the PDF generated from the form.
However, the pages from all 10 files end up being combined into one document.
This results in a document with too many pages, making it difficult to find the specific page you’re looking for. -

It is already a thing but you have to use the form with templates... You can have several templates and each "add document" field can be linked with one of the templates.
Then, if necessary, you can remove the first section of the template by making an API call in a workflow.
But yeah you can already have a form and separate each uploaded document... it's just hard to do, considering how simple the need is.
