Hello everyone

My Photo upload via Flow to SharePoint worked fine in my Quality Control Power App.

A few users wanted to use both (front and back) cameras on their mobile devices. So I integrated a dropdown menu to select the devices camera. Now, when I want to upload a photo, the flow fails with the following Message:

Hi,

Looks like your flow failed due to invalid trigger data. As per the description shown within this template, the default configuration will only run smoothly if the Power Apps application is sending information to the flow from a Camera control in Power Apps. Please ensure that the Power Apps is set up with the right control.

Thanks

So, the "Items" properties for the dropdwon "drpCamera" for selecting the camera is:

Camera.AvailableDevices

The "Camera" properties are

drpCamera.Selected.Id

And the "OnSelect" properties on the Camera:

Set(_actualimage; Camera.Photo);; Set(_imgtitle; ....)

I am then - before uploading the photo - creating a preview; the image is displayed just by the "Image" properties:

_actualimage

It all worked fine, before I added the selection of the Device.

Any ideas hot to solve this? Do I need to add the Device Information to the "OnSelect" properties of the camera?

Thanks, Marc

Hi @Anonymous ,

Is the return array of Camera.AvailableDevices empty?
A few days ago I also created an App to upload photos to SharePoint via Flow, it works fine.

I just added a Drop down Control to select the camera device as well, but it still works fine.
Here are some settings of my App, hope it's helpful.

Best Regards,
Charlie Choi

Hi @v-yujincui-msft

Thank you very much for your help. After checking all the settings according to yours, i came to the conclusion that not the camera setting was the problem, but other changes I made.
I activated the "improved media caputre" in the experimental functions, somehow the format must have been changed with this and the flow failed. After deactivating it works fine again.

Best Regards,
Marc
