Good Morning all 

 

So i am having a little issue with a power app i am building that is connected to a share point image library 

here is my media library,  the idea it to better manage our very large amount of photos we have within the company and to make it a very nice look and feel

i have a few issues one being i wanted to  have more customisation on the layout of the form but i have recently learned that the patch function doesn't work when connecting to a image library so using a container and manually adding inputs as failed so i tried using a form which although pulls the data i cannot seem to get the picture to show please see below

i have tried the following on the image,   

ThisItem.'Link to item'
ThisItem.'Thumbnail'.Medium
but nothing works  i am also having issues with another page when it comes to uploading a new image,  i can get a gallery to work fine as shown below

    Good Morning Thankyou for your reply but i no this video and its data source is a MS list not a document/image Library, i have a few apps with its data source is connected to MS lists and they work fine with images but when it comes to a image library i am having issues.  one thing i haven't tried is using a image column to the image library and using the app to up load to that column and i was going to try that but what if someone wants to upload a image directly to the SP Library in sharepoint because if they do the image will by default upload to the thumbnail column

    what do you want to use the app for? for displaying and uploading pictures?

     

    this is a good video is you ask me, you can browse thru folders and store pictures there and also upload pictures to the folder were u actually in at the moment.

    It is to be used for a nice interface for browsing  and searching for images as well as for uploading new images

    well the second and third option can be done with the video i posted here, you just need to add a searchbox and filter the gallery based on the input in that box
