We would like to create a custom field in CiviCRM for a file upload, and link it to the CiviCRM Webforms Integration module while at the same time keeping it "private" and is not publicly accessible.
Is there a way to do this in CiviCRM? Or maybe this is a default behaviour and files uploaded to CiviCRM are kept private? (Not accessible from the web directly etc..).
Thanks in advance for any help,
CiviCRM files are never directly web-accessible. If you are also using Webform integration to submit the file, then a copy of the file is also stored in Drupal. You could either make your Drupal files private (this is a Drupal setting) or you could implement a hook to delete the files from Drupal after they are uploaded.
