Can't export attachments

I seem to remember that it used to be possible to export attachments in previous builds, but in 8.7.0-3.NIGHTLY, I simply can't figure out how to do it. Am-I missing something?
I have apps that need a license file to be activated and I simply cannot export the file itself at this point…
(and while we're on this topic, I miss the time when attachments were only that: embedded in the item they belonged to and that was it. I really don't need to see them separately in the list of my items as documents).

OS Version: macOS 12.3

    From the entry for iPartition, I can only open up the linked item in 1Password. From there, I can preview or download it.
    I can't do anything to preview or download it directly from within the entry for iPartition itself though.

    Looks like this file is linked… 🤔
    Could you try if you are able to attach this file? Just download it and attach it.

    Hi DenalB,

    The files were attached to the entry in 1Password 7 (where they were only displayed in the entry itself) and then migrated to 1Password 8.
    in the entry for the app (iPartition in this case), they show up as "related item" now.

    Hey Corentin,

    Did you attach files into entries. Or did you upload files as documents and linked them in your entries?

    The entry where I took the screenshot from has a file attached.

    Hi DenalB

    I think I've figured it out.
    There is no download button in the item it belongs to, but if I select View there, I can get to the entry for the file, and on the right of the Preview section, I can see the arrow pointing down allowing me to download…
    Lots of steps… I wish it were available directly in the software entry in 1Password instead of having to open up the entry for the embedded item. That's a step back from v7 for me :-(

    Thanks for your help though!

    Hi cortig !

    Are you able to download the file?

    I made this screenshot in 1Password 8 for Windows beta build 80700002.
