Download images to local computer

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 725

Hi Everyone

I have a gallery of photos sourced from a Sharepoint list that I can email. But I would also like the ability to download all visible photos in the gallery to a local computer with a single click. From my searches so far I am not to optimistic.

    @Corissandageri ,

    The problem here is that the Flow is "in the cloud" and has no vision of your local PC.

    Hi Warren

    Yes this works, but what the daily workflow will be, is a staff member takes about 10+ photos of production with a  m phone, then in the office on a desktop app they will be quickly reviewed and the option A: emailed to a recipient(I have that working) or option B: downloaded to a local machine and uploaded to an online interface of one of our customers that has their own system. I don't suppose there is a flow that can do this? Also one of the things I like about emailing the photos is I have control over the naming of the photos.

    @Corissandageri ,

    Depending on what is in your gallery images (attachments, library items or URL) you can open them individually Attachments

    Launch(ThisItem.AbslouteUri)

    Library

    Launch(ThisItem.'Link to item')

    URL

    Launch(ThisItem.FieldName)

    where the FieldName is the one containing the URL.

    You can also use Download(), but this has the same effect.

    I also have a blog on SharePoint images that may be useful to you.

    But back to your question, you can only launch one at a time as the browser will only open one new tab (it replaces the first if you try to open a second).

     

    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.
