How to send a file into the database from a component?

Actions | Adalo support arguments that let you route data from your component to actions

{
  ...
  "props": [
    {
      "name": "exampleAction",
      "displayName": "Example Action",
      "type": "action",
      "arguments": [
        {
          "type": "number",
          "displayName": "Argument 1"
        },
        {
          "type": "text",
          "displayName": "Argument 2"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

In the “recommender”, where Adalo suggests different magic texts for the app creator, your component will now show up as an expandable tab, and Argument 1 and Argument 2 will show up as options for actions under “Example Action”.

It is datatype specific, so “Argument 2” will NOT show up if the field is number-only.

How do I get it to recommend to and send data to File type fields?

You cannot.
