Hi,

I want to show image from my sharepoint library, so I used this in my image formula:

"https://xxxxx.sharepoint.com/:f:/r/sites/xxx/xxxx/production_engineering/Welding%20Map%20Files/Others/Drawing%20Welding%20Map/"&Substitute(TextInput1.Text,"
","")&".jpg?csf=1&web=1&e=XGAeRV"

It works when I used Laptop to open my apps, but when I use smartphone, the image doesn't appear. Does anyone know why this happen? And how to fix it? Thank you!

Yup as far as I read the above posts, I think its not possible.

But you can try the following that @WarrenBelz suggested:

Its in the 2nd post:

Tagging @WarrenBelz If he can assist here.

I havent tried it myself so I am not exactly sure, so tagged him.

Hi @firda59 , yes you can. You have to add the SP library as datasource in your app. E.g. it is called "Documents".
To show the image you can create an image with source something like below:

First(Filter(Documents; Filenameextension="thisismyimage.jpg")).Thumbnail.Large

When using a gallery, the datasource Documents can be used to list the images as previews in your app.
This works both when you run the app in a browser and on a (Android and iOS) mobile device.

Btw: you can/should improve above example by filtering on an indexed column because of delegation issues when your library contains lots of files

@Maurits ,

The only issue there is that queries on the File Name are not Delegable. You need to actually link the SharePoint Library and include a Delegable "link" to the "Parent". I use a numeric field containing the ID of the Parent. The issue is that on Mobile devices, Power Apps needs to resolve and URL-based Images anonymously (not requiring any login), so anything "pointing" at a SharePoint URL will not work. I have a blog on this subject that may be useful.

Thankyou! I using formula: ThisItem.'{Thumbnail}'.Large and it can work perfectly in Laptop or SmartPhone.
