Upload Photos Mobile Button - Save to phone

Posted on by SamTimmins 19

Hi Team,

 

I'm using a variation of the 'Upload photos to SharePoint folder' template in Power Automate to upload photos and several other custom fields to our file storage which works quite well. 

 

However I've had a question asked if it is possible that when taking the photo inside the button and pressing 'Done' to begin the upload - whether the photo could be saved to the phone gallery locally as well? 

 

Is this possible? 

 

Thanks,

    Hi @SamTimmins 

     

    As a work around, you may get the image uploaded url in an action from Flow and append &download to the URL. Now, send a notification to the mobile phone with that URL. Once you click it, it should navigate you to the download page in a browser (that is how it works for the PC with a few different actions)

     

    Hope this Helps!
