I have two apps (App_A, App_B) that share the same table. The table has a signature column. When a row is created in App_A, the signature image is stored, on google drive, in /appsheet/data/App_A/my_table_images/. The filepath that is stored in the table, for a signature image, is of the form โmy_table_images/my_signature.pngโ. These load fine in App_A because appsheet knows to look in โ/appsheet/data/App_A/โ for the image.
The problem is that the signatures do not load in App_B. I just see the โfile not foundโ triangle. I assume this is because the app is looking for an image here: โ/appsheet/data/App_B/my_table_images/my_signature.pngโ. App_B does not know that it should be looking in โ/appsheet/data/App_A/โ
I tried changing the โImage/File folder pathโ setting of the signature column to these values: โ/appsheet/data/App_B/โ, โ/data/App_B/โ, โ/App_B/โ, but none of those options work.
Does anyone know what I should do?
Iโm not check it right now, but I throught it might have something to do with the security option setting.
Chenged the Secure Image access or Require image and file url signing in App_A may change the result.
Sorry for ther uncertainty information, but I hope you can give it a try.
Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, this did not solve the problem.
Hi @Daniel_Turner The โImage/File folder pathโ must always be relative to the location of the spreadsheet. So you need to have the image folder in both places: โ/appsheet/data/App_A/โ and โ/appsheet/data/App_B/โ. If you are using Google Drive you can solve it this way:
Now you have the same folder in two places. This is not a copy - itโs called multi parenting.
Info: Right click on the image folder and select โAdd shortcut to Driveโ does not do the job.
Alternative: Under Info > Properties > Default app folder you could paste the same path from App_A to App_B. I think this should solve your problem, two. Then all files are in โ/appsheet/data/App_A/โ.
If you are using the google drive folder, just create a shortcut of the application image folder A (where you capture the images) inside the application folder B (where you want to display the images).
