Save pen input to SharePoint and generate email using power automate

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 50

Hello - I need some help.

 

I followed Reza's video and created a simple list with two columns (more to be added later), Title and Signature. The signature box on Update is varBlob and on Submit I have:

Set(varBlob,JSON(InputSignature.Image,JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData));SubmitForm(EditForm1)

 

This saves to my list as a data image and specifically, "data:image/png;base64,iVBOR followed by a really long code. How do I flow this to save the signature as an attachment within the list? I also want to use power automate to send emails to department leads.

 

Thank you!

    Hello,

     

    I'm creating an electronic permit for my company using PowerApps. I've been watching Rezza's video, Power Apps Pen Input save to SharePoint & PDF (Signature) - YouTube to be able to save a signature within the SharePoint list. I have also built PowerApps before however, when I go to test the App, my entry is not recorded in my list or my gallery. Does anyone know whats happening that won't allow my entry to be recorded?

    Hi, this did not solve my question. I want the signature to save as an attachment.

    @anyegaard ,

    That is exactly what it will do it you send

    • Your list item ID as ItemID
    • varBlob as ImageJSON
    • Your filename as FileName

    I'm fairly new to power automate and for whatever reason, having a hard time following. Could you please break it down further?

    @anyegaard ,

    I am not sure what further detail to the Flow images I posted is possible. What part is it you do follow ?
