Ask Powerapps for create folder in power automate issue.

hey everyone!!

 

I have an app that you take a photo with and then submit.  onsubmit , from submit button, starts a flow that creates a jpg image and places it in a specified created folder and also a sharable link. My issue is I need to have the Created folder captured from power apps. So for example: If I am doing a survey and want the picture from that survey to load in a Folder titled site id (12345). Well, when I select ask power apps for the Folder name it breaks the entire flow because of the Base64 stuff. Any ideas of how I can achieve this? Below are my code and Flow info.

 

 

Set(varAttach, JSON(UploadedImage1.Image, JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData));
 Set(varBase64Only, Mid(varAttach, Find(",", varAttach)+1, Len(varAttach) - Find(",", varAttach) -1 ) );
 Set(varFLAfter, TestArrivalimage.Run(Label1.Text, Label1.Text & "_ Cling_" & Text(Now(), "[$-en-US]mm-dd-yyyy ") & ".jpg", varBase64Only).ecoclingarrival);

    After The PowerApps Trigger add an action "Initialize Variable". name the action accordingly BEFORE you click Ask in powerapps

    you then use the variable in your create file action.
