How to view attachments stored in a dataverse table

Hi, I set up a form in power apps that lets you save attachements. I don't know the easiest way to view or download those files that are saved as attachments though. I found that there is a table in power apps where all those files are located and I'm trying to display the images in a gallery in power apps without success

 

So far I tried to add an image control to the gallery connected to that table, then in the image property I set Thisitem.documentbody which I think is the column where the image is stored. The function doesn't give any error but the image is not shown

 

What Im doing wrong or how could I achieve this differently?

    This is not the solution you are looking for but I have done a similar thing where the data table will display the attachment name and in order to view the attachment you select the table it navigates you to a different screen to view the data in an edit form. At which point you are able to download the file to your computer to view it. I am still fairly new on learning power apps but you may want to consider an alternative like this. I hope someone has the solution you are looking for. If I figure it out I will let you know because this would be a great function to have in an app.
