Media-> add picture. Help uploading picture to dataverse.

Posted on by 11

Hello,

I am using the Media: "add picture" control in a canvas app. I am unable to upload the picture into my dataverse table. My dataverse table has a field: "highRes" (type:file), which I am trying to write to.

So, I have the "addmediawithimage" function set up; it appears to be working just fine. I have a dummy "image" box set to function: varP. Next I have a button with function: Set(varP, UploadedImage3) with uploadedImage 3 being the name of the addmediawithimage function. Finally, an icon with function: Patch(Inventory, RecordsGallery1.Selected, {highRes: varP}). So, my process is click "addmedia with image" function (working). Click button to set varP to the uploaded image (working). Then click "icon" to write to dataverse table (not working). I don't have any errors, and am unsure of how to proceed.

I guess the reason I am attempting this type of solution is that it worked well for me using the "camera" function. I was able to take a picture with the camera and upload the image into my dataverse table (Inventory) with success, using essentially an identical code as above. However, the function is not working for the "addmediawithimage" function. The camera function takes laughably low res photos, so I am looking for a way to upload higher res. images easily.

Side note: I found alot of very difficult solutions to the camera image upload (the low res. ones) . I was pleased that I was able to implement such a simple code which did exactly what I needed it to, without the need of flows or any other extraneous processes. I am hoping to do the same with the high res. uploads.

with gratitude,
macroSoft
