Hi all,

I'm trying to import an image with 'add picture' button, and save imported image to OneDrive. But my issue is, i can't understand how to do that, because link image imported is blobmanager and when i try to create a file into OneDrive to save my picture it's doesn't work, someone knows how to use Add picture button saving image into OneDrive?

Hi @Poloni

I found this tutorial online.
It uses the Create SharePoint file action in the flow but I expect the OneDrive action to be quite similar.

Should you prefer a video format tutorial, YouTube channels such as Shane Young or Reza Dorrani have video's on uploading pictures as well. I would highly recommend watching one of those video's because there are quite a few steps involved.

Note: If you want to import/upload a picture (not take one) via the app, to my knowledge, you will need to use a workaround (Attachment Control not the Image control). The above mentioned YouTube channels also have video's on this.

Would it be possible to check if this solves your questions?
Thanks!

Hello @Poloni

For Power Apps Trigger Upload button, you'll need this code:
Set(varImageJSON,JSON(AddMediaButton1.Media,JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData)); Set(prepImage,If( Right(AddMediaButton1.FileName, 3) = "jpg", Mid(varImageJSON, 25, Len(varImageJSON) - 25), Right(AddMediaButton1.FileName, 3) = "png", Mid(varImageJSON, 24, Len(varImageJSON) - 24) ); 'PowerApp->Createfile'.Run(prepImage,AddMediaButton1.FileName)

For Automate, you need to wrap the content with base64ToBinary function.
