Collector 10.3 : ObjectID-based attachments are not supported.

Question

We are trying to setup collector for our project and have been hitting this odd error. Can someone translate?

Map Download Failed

Unable to download the map.

The operation couldn't be completed. Failed to create table descriptions from the input. ObjectID-based attachments are not supported. Failed to create table descriptions from input. ObjectID-based attachments are not supported.

OK

[The repetition is intentional. the error message reads exactly that way.]

We are removing attachment and trying again, but we will need attachments. Was there a note about attachments that I forgot to read?

Thanks in advance.

This means that attachments were created on your feature class and it did not have a GlobalID field when the attachment relationship was created. If you remove the attachments, add globalIDs to your feature class and then create the attachments, it will be GlobalID based and will download without that error message.
