Error in Patching Image - Sharepoint

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 39

Hello!

 

i'm new to powerapps and I couldn't get my head wrapped around this error. I keep getting:

 

"The type of this argument "Photo" does not match the expected type [Record]. Type text found."

 

The Photo in SharePoint is a type image.

 

Patch(
   'Photo List',
   Defaults('Photo List'),
   {
       Title: "Just Anything",
       Photo: addImage.Media
   }
)

 

 

Thank you!

    Hi @marctimothy ,

    Assuming Photo is an Image field in SharePoint, you need to use the image control inside the AddMedia (use your actual control name)

    Patch(
     'Photo List',
     Defaults('Photo List'),
     {
     Title: "Just Anything",
     Photo: UploadedImage.Image
     }
    )
