Replacing / Adding a thumbnail to Sharepint list from PowerApps with PowerAutomate

Hello!

I've built an inventory system using PowerApps and a SharePoint list and have a service account with permissions where no one other than the service account can manually edit the file, and it must be done through the PowerApp.

All changes are pumped through PowerAutomate so they can run under the service account's permissions rather than the users (thats how I force them to use the App).

I want the ability to change / add an items thumbnail to the sharepoint list from the PowerApp using PowerAutomate.

Any Advice?

Hi,

So if there is a Thumbnail column I am guessing its possibly custom, OR that none of the documents that are there, have an extension that is MIME TYPED and stored, so it cannot load anything (in ShareP;oint)

I just wondered because updating a custom image thumbnail is easy enough and people use that all the time.

Cheers

Nope, its something that was already in the Sharepoint list. It COULD;VE been but I really just don't remember

Hi

Just to make sure, is the thumbnail a custom column you created?
