In IFS Cloud 24R2, open supplier invoices were being migrated with the standard external file template STDSIN2, and the matching PDF copies also needed to be imported and attached. Attaching documents worked with template STDSIN3 but not with STDSIN2.

Technical details STDSIN2; STDSIN3

The out-of-the-box STDSIN2 template has no file name attribute for the attachment, while STDSIN3 already includes one. Fix: create a new template based on STDSIN2 and add the file name attribute; the invoice PDFs then attach. Confirmed by the asker (marked Best Answer), and an IFS employee replied that copying STDSIN2 and adding the image attribute is the usual approach. Open point: where the import files should be stored in IFS Cloud was not settled in the thread (FTP was suggested but not confirmed).
