Getting Http error 401 while trying to download file (stored in dataverse)

(1) ShareShare

Hi All !

 

I am facing this issue where I get http error 401 while trying to download a file through powerapps which is stored in a Dataverse Table.

Now if I run the URL : https://org*******.crm.dynamics.com and then try to download again it works.

I understand this issue is with authorization. 

But not sure how to achieve it without needing to run the URL first.

 

Thanks

    I have exactly the same error: I can't download a file from Dataverse, but my users can.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you!

    Same issue... but weirdly if a user opens a model-driven app in the same browser session, and then tries to access the document again, it works. Anybody found a real solution yet?

    Hi @rampprakash 

    We are using File type column instead of image type

    Hi @rampprakash 

    Thanks for the quick response

    I have stored the data in File Type column and not the Image Type 

    Thanks

    Hi @omkarb26011 

     

    Navigate to Https://make.powerapps.com

    Expand Dataverse --> Click Table --> Open the Respective Table --> Select the Image Column--> Copy the Logical Name for field(this is called Attribute name)

    Hi @rampprakash 

    What should be the AttributeName ?

    From where will I get to know that ?
