Copy link of an attachment in Sharepoint lists to photo of contact of the very same entity

Posted on by skouboe 10

Hi,

I am quite new to Power Automate, and I have only made a few flows. I would like to bulit a power automate flow to copy the link of an attachment in Sharepoint lists to photo of contact of the very same entity (list id).

 

This would save our user from having a 2-step process. Today they have, after having attached the file to the entity, to do the following.

1. Open "edit" in a list entity

2. Then go to the attachment on the entity

3. Rightclick, copy the link from the attachment

4. Insert that link to the "photo of contact"

5. Finally save the update.

 

Doing this will help us have a smooth process to show pictures in a list.

 

Regards

Dennis

    I think you should use Picture Library to achieve this and setup additional metadata related to Contact. That way they dont have to attach their Picture.

     

    Other option is, within the List, create a column of type picture and users can upload picture.
