Automate flow in PowerApp form to upload photo's to SPO works fine from browser, mobile edition fails from iphone

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by rnorris 66

I have a Power Apps form (both SharePoint and mobile) that seems to work just fine from a browser. It calls Power Automate flow that takes input from powerapps buttons and creates the file in SPO just fine if I'm on a pc and using jpg file.

If on the other hand I'm running the app from my iphone, and either select an image from my photo library or take a photo, nothing I upload is viewable inside the SharePoint list. What follows is a snip of the flow overall, and expanding the functions ... Any help appreciated!

    I think @WarrenBelz has answered this on other threads. It would appear the only way to upload files from iphones (?other smart phones) to SharePoint libs is to use a column called Thumbnail.

     

    If I go that approach I'll need to rebuild the app from the ground up. I'm allready using a private CDN in SPO and the Name (default title) is where I'm holding the image content.
