Displaying an image from Dataverse

Hi again,

 

I have a Dataverse table which has a column to store an image. I'm using a Power apps Canvas app to display the other columns, which I'm doing on an Edit Form.

 

I added the Image field to the form within Power Apps and that's created the DataCard for this field. It also added the Addimage control which I used to select the image to upload. When I first select the image, it shows no problem at all as expected. The form is then saved using the SubmitForm method.

 

After this I can see the image in the Dataverse table if I view it directly. However, in the app, when I go back into the record, the image that is there won't display on the image control.

 

Even if I place an Image control outside the form and set the image property to datatable1.selected.AssetImage.Full the image is always showing nothing.

 

Is there some other trick required to display an image that's stored in dataverse?

 

thanks,

 

Martin

    I finally worked out the reason for this!

     

    The field with the image recorded in it was not being used in the datatable on the screen, and for this reason wasn't being brought across from the datasource. Even though the control was being used on a form? As soon as I added that field to the datatable it worked.
