BULK IMAGE UPLOAD: Drag Files to Google Drive Folder and Auto-Add to AppSheet/Google Sheets

[GreenFlux]

IMAGE UPLOADS: Current Limitations in AppSheet

• Only one image can be uploaded at a time
• Filename is tied to key, and does not use file-name from uploaded file

SOLUTION: Integromat Scenario; Google Drive -> Sheets

Integromat offers a free plan than can monitor a Google Drive folder and add new rows to Google Sheets.

DISCLAIMER/FULL DISCLOSURE: GreenFlux is an AppSheet, and Integromat, Partner Developer. I am not asking for referrals, and use of this integration does not require a paid plan with Integromat. This info is to benefit the AppSheet developer community.

Again an awesome solution. Thank you @GreenFlux

And it’s incredibly easy to set up with Integromat!

This would take a LOT more time to set up with a script. I couldn’t believe how simple it was to configure in Integromat. I may have jumped out of my chair and screamed a little the first time it worked!

Old thread but seems to be still valid.

@GreenFlux how does AppSheet do with handling hundreds of images. I do not want to bog down the system.

I run construction projects and some projects could have 500-1000 images from start to finish.

My other option was to just link the google drive folder in AppSheet as a URL for access, uploading and viewing.

Any options for someone using Microsoft back end instead of Google Sheets?
