Hi,
I've never use PowerApps before and I'm having trouble finding answers to what I need online. I'm trying to create a form where users submit information (text) plus image and document attachment in SharePoint list. Initially I created an image column which worked great but I wanted to color-code the form's field and move the attachment field up (instead of being the last category) - and that's how I ended up on PowerApps. Now I'm trying to create a form where user can upload an image file (structure) using this form. The "Add Image" card doesn't save the image uploaded and the attachment only shows a paperclip. How can I have user upload the image using the form then display it in the list? Either display attachment as thumbnails (an image for every attachment) or in another image column.
Thanks!
Hi @callamari ,
I have a fairly detailed blog on this subject. Happy to assist with your code once you have read it if it suits your requirements.

Hi @WarrenBelz ,
I have read your blog and am trying to figure how to apply it to my situation. I only started using Power Apps 2 days ago and still trying to figure out how things work. The "attachment" card does what I want but I would like it to display a thumbnail of the attached file in the list column instead of just paperclip. This form needs to be very basic and user friendly so any one can add to the list, and upload image.
You cannot display a thumbnail in the attachment control, but you can in a separate gallery as set out here.
Just checking if you got the result you were looking for on this thread. Happy to help further if not.
Hi @WarrenBelz
I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I'll keep you posted!
Thanks,
Marissa
I am having a hard time trying to find the "create file" below. I don't think I have the full application, only the web version.
@callamari ,
OneDrive for Business > Create File
I don't think I have the full access version as I can't even get to the "create file" option. The only option I have is for mobile but this will be used strictly on PC
That is strange - there in only one version of Power Automate that I know of.
