I uploaded an image to Excel; however, I do not see the folder you mentioned is created in OneDrive.
I hope so too, JimmyS,
Thank you for your reply
No solutions. I've moved away from this for now to focuse on creating apps. Just finished my third. The Gallery isn't as important to me as the ability to upload photos, without having to attach them to an email. My plan was to offload photos every day or two, to keep the gallery small, and never get close to 500. Not even 100. But without knowing the description of the files being saved to OneDrive, that's simply not possible. If I had a reference, I could move a batch of 5-10 photos at a time into a specific Job Folder. Not sure if this will ever get resolved.
Guess I read recently that Flows are being improved for PowerApps. Hopefully that will help solve this riddle.

Her is my question/dilema. Files uploaded to Excel have a caption and an image path. That same image path gets saved in the OneDrive folder along with the image. But because of the complex nature of the filename, it's really difficult to identify each image in OneDrive after you have more than a few.
Is there any way to, 1) rename the image path to something meaningful from within PowerApps, before saving to Excel/OneDrive. Or, append the Caption title (assuming the caption title would always have the proper syntax:nospaces, etc.) to the Image file name.
My installers may upload 20-30 images per day. That will really bog down PowerApps and a Gallery. I would like to offload images from the default OneDrive folder into specific Job sub-folders each day or two. But I need a specific filename in order to do that. Captions like 24689 could tell me that all images including 24689 belong to the same job.
I am trying to get a Flow to work as well to see if there is any other flexibility in using that method. Still working on it.
Hello JimmyS,
Did you figure out how to rename the image path ?
Also I would like to ask, if you use filter for the images, to display them in a gallery.
If you have 20- 30 images per day, you will reach the 500 limit soon.
Do you have a solution for that?
Thank you in advance.
