Hello Lloyd,

 

The table’s name in assyst is ole_items 

This table is generally the largest table in any assyst database in terms of the sheer size of data. It stores all images and attachments for all the record types in assyst. Most records on most other tables can be associated with one or more files known as attachments.

Bare i mind that assyst has the option to have attachments stored either in the Database, or separately from the database in Azure BLOB Storage. If you are using assyst version 11.8 have a look at the following: Installation:assyst Server Required Services - assyst11-8Wiki

Best Regards,

Caroline
