I have a powerapp that displays links to news articles posted on sharepoint. The data comes from the Graph API. Included in an image URL stored in a sharepoint site assets library. I have tried using the image component and setting the image string to the image URL enclosed in speechmarks. But it does not work. The URL does open an image in a browser.

If I use the url for an image not on sharepoint it works e.g.

"https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AM2Eody7kF0/mqdefault.jpg"

but my sharepoint url doesnt

"https://company.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/getpreview.ashx?path=%2Ffunctions%2Fcomms%2FSiteAssets%2FSitePages%2FImportant-information-for-the-festive-season%2F75924-b180bc18864408066a65bb1ce274e9be.jpg"

What am I doing wrong?

hey @nick9one1

The URL you provided seems to be encoded (notice %2F instead of /). While browsers can handle this automatically, PowerApps might require a decoded URL or different handling.

did u try this?

Let me know if my answer helped solving your issue.

If it did please accept as solution and give it a thumbs up so we can help others in the community.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried a de-coded url and it also doesnt work.
