Posted on by FrankyDC 14

Hello,

 

I am designing an application where the user should be able to add a picture. I have provided this with an addimage control. When the user adds a picture, he gets the following error:

If a patch follows afterwards, the photo is saved.

 

Can someone help me to adjust this?

    If you open this app on make.powerapps.com canvas editor. and then play the app inside the editor. perform the action. and after you get the error close the player and see on which component can you see the error. then show a screenshot of the function that causes this error

    thanks
