Display preview of Attachments

Posted on by Ava_Raine

I am having issues displaying the preview of my attachments. The goal was to have a gallery the user can click through displaying my image and the associated metadata from a SharePoint list. I have my images all input as attachments due to other requirements of the app and am not sure how to display a thumbnail of them. I am currently using First(ThisItem.Attachment).AbsoluteUri but it takes way to long to load per image. My solution was to somehow create a Power Automate flow that can copy the URL of an image and past it into the image column so I can display a thumbnail preview of each in my app.

Not sure how to get this flow working or if its possible. Also if there is any way to compress my image without an encodian extension please let me know.

Thank you!

Hey!
I have tried that and it still takes the images a long time to load.
Both the AbsoluteUri and Value still maintain the high-res which increases loading times drastically.
