I have a Power App that patches pictures into a Share point list and for some reason the images are stored differently in Share Point now which is messing up my Flow without changing anything in my Power App. Is this a new update in Share Point? For example, my images used to be stored like this:/Site Assets/Lists/6fc3b657-e3ee-4f0b-95c4-b64bd9627510/8fb1c25a-de15-4dbf-94a3-aa015c16d075.jpeg/Lists/ChampionX%20Failure%20Reports/Attachments/161/Reserved_ImageAttachment_%5B13%5D_%5BFieldPicture2%5D%5B36%5D_%5Be2162d63-2270-4630-9032 553d26b68e93%5D%5B2%5D_%5B21%5D.pngLists/ChampionX%20Failure%20Reports/Attachments/161/Reserved_ImageAttachment_%5B13%5D_%5BFieldPicture2%5D%5B36%5D_%5Be2162d63-2270-4630-9032-553d26b68e93%5D%5B2%5D_%5B21%5D.png
Flow for obtaining images urls should not be affected by chanegs to syntax of urls, better to rewrite the flow if it is being thrown off by this. If you are trying to move or copy an image COLUMN, or get the url it tends to work best to use the HTTP Request > Get action, and Post Actions.What are you doing with these images in the end that you need for your scenario
actually looking at your links a little closer, one of those is for an image in the ATTACHMENT column, and the other is for an image in the IMAGE column. you will approach each of these differently in PowerAutomate
I am populating a Word template with those images. So I first send an HTTP Request to Sharepoint then Parse Json then Get File Content.
The get File Content is coming back null
Yah so in your first (old) link you are using an image column (which the http request method is correct for,the seocnd newer link is an attachment column image, it has to be done differently. Should choose one of the two to use not both
O ok I see, but I didn't change my Sharepoint. I guess I should change the column in sharepoint to be an image column and not an attachment column?
It's weird because they are both the same column in my SharePoint. It's just when I modify or change the entry from my Power App the object changes from image column to attachment column
Yah I mean, An image column can only store 1 image, as opposed to several in an attachment column, but if that is not an issue then yes, the example link you provided is the type that comes from an image column image so I'd use that.Images stored in the attachment column are much different, and need to be accessed by get attachments, then an apply to each, get attachment content, and then used that way
Actually it is an image column, but it is still stored as this attachment link:/Attachments/161/Reserved_ImageAttachment_%5B13%5D_%5BFieldPicture2%5D%5B36%5D_%5Be2162d63-2270-4630-9032-553d26b68e93%5D%5B2%5D_%5B21%5D.png
Nothing can change TO an attachment column, its just a default column on every sharepoint list that you can neither remove nor add. Could be how you referenced it in your get action perhaps. try thisSite address is where list is, method is get and then this in URI
_api/Web/Lists/getByTitle('EventMaster')/items?$filter=ID eq items('Apply_to_each_2')?['ID']&$select=busQRrecord
here eventmaster is listname and busQRrecord is image column
after the above i do a compose liek so
first(body('Send_an_HTTP_request_to_SharePoint_2')['d']['results'])
then a parse json of
{ "type": "object", "properties": { "body": { "type": "object", "properties": { "name": { "type": "string" }, "value": { "type": "string" } } } } }
