Are you just looking for "query links to all files with basic metadata like name and file type"?

`file` is an object which contains a bunch of file metadata (it's copied from the file the task is in for task queries); the correct query is ``` TASK GROUP...

Are you still grouping by `file`? Have you tried grouping by `file.link`?
