Photo URL in Data Table

Hello, 

I am using PowerApps to create a quick data table that pulls from a Sharepoint list.  The text fields display correctly however the 3 image fields display as "object Object." How do I format to get the image fields to display a clickable hyperlink in my data table?  Thanks in advance!

    Hi @NateB ,

    I did some testing and found that Sharepoint's image column is displayed in Datatable instead of URL.

    If you want to set it, you can click to open it, and you need to set the Onselect attribute of the column:

    DataTable2.Selected.GIf.Full  :DataTable2.Selected.GIf.Full does not display the URL of the image. We cannot use this value to jump to the image.

     

     

    Here it is suggested to change the image column to the Hyperlink column, and then the URL will be referenced in the above way

    If you want this column to also display the image style, you can set the column's settings

    If you still want to use image columns, I'm afraid it is not available for now. But you can create a new idea through the below URL, then ask  your colleagues to raise up the votes.

    Hi @v-chengfen-msft

     

    Thanks for your help.  I should have mentioned that I am using the patch function to transfer the images from Power Apps to Sharepoint.  I have adjusted the image column settings in Sharepoint as you mentioned.  Now when I try to patch, I get the error "The specified column is generated by the server and can't be specified."  Is there a trick to patching these images from my gallery as a hyperlink?  Thanks again!
