Images stored in SharePoint document library cannot be displayed on smartphone while it can be shown normally in the PowerApps preview

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I have added an image control in my PowerApps. The "image" property of this control is pointing to an URL of a picture which is stored in a SharePoint Library that I have the full control access. The image can be displayed normally in the canvas as well as in the F5 preview mode. However, my smartphone just can't display this picture. I don't know what the problem is.  

I have tried to replace the URL to other pictures that grabbed from internet web site. In that case, the picture can be displayed normally in both of my canvas preview and smartphone. I wonder if this is a access issue? Or shall I add additional connection between my PowerApps application and that SharePoint Library?

Thank you!

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    This is expect behaviour due to the way Power Apps resolves URLs anonymously. I have done a blog on SharePoint Images - look towards the end for the viewing options - you need the '{Thumbnail}' syntax.
