Hi everyone,

Need some help with a app which is killing my mind 😥
I build a app for auditing energy labels for houses and buildings. The houses are saved as items in a sharepoint list imported from a SQL database. In the OnStart of the app I use a collection to fetch all the items, because we have more then 2000 items in the list. I have a attachment control to add pictures to an item. I'm trying to display the images from the attachment control in an galley but can't get it to work from out of a collection.
It is working when I use a gallery with the list as source, not if the source is a collection. I need to work with the collection because of 2000+ items.

Someone an idea or possible solution how to create this?

Hi @Winvision ,

Firstly collections do not bring in Attachments, so you cannot work directly with attachments. You can however lookup the list

LookUp( ListName, ID=ThisItem.ID ).Attachments

I have a blog as to the options from there.

Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.
