Uploading photo from PowerApps to SharePoint using Flow not working

Posted on 3 Feb 2021 21:15:31 by

I am building an app where I upload a picture from PowerApps to SharePoint, I have a camera control in PowerApps that saves the picture to a collection in PowerApps and then uploads it. the flow I am using is the template that is listed in Flow called Update a Photo to SharePoint from PowerApps. when it uploads it sends it as a link not an actual picture? in the pictures attached I show what template I use. the second attachment is what the result is after running the flow from PowerApps its uploading something but not the picture, if I click on the paper thumbnail it downloads something and I have to open it using photo viewer to actually view the picture.

    Check in your flow when you are creating the file in SharePoint that you are adding .jpg to the file name.  In screen.PNG its showing the file test with no extension.  That may be why the image can't be displayed.

    @Pstork1 Here is the run command in powerapps, i use a camera to capture a picture and send it to a collection1 and the image function to pull the first item on the collection. i called the item test for testing purposes and will eventually make it dynamic. i included my sharepint library and to show how other items i upload throug PC show up and how the 'Test' items shows up. i also included my Powerapp Collection, my camera function has a clearcollect function on select.

    Can you show the collection and run command you are using in Power Apps to call the Flow?  I use an almost identical flow to that template and mine is still working fine.
