Bug - Show SharePoint List Attachments in Gallery - Image Name not populating

[eddyg]

When you add a Gallery and bind a Collection built from an Attachments datacard, the images populate in the collection but the names don't.

Watch this 2 minute video which demonstrates this issue when building an app from scratch.

This should be possible, but there is currently a bug with the Attachments control that was introduced a couple of weeks ago.  Because of the holidays, the fix won't make production until 2019.

In the meantime the only workaround is creating your app with the older version of the Studio.  You can do that by modifying the studio URL like so:

https://us.create.powerapps.com/studio/#    ---->

https://us.create.powerapps.com/v3.18111.17.97110203/studio/#

If you are editing an existing app, and the older version of the Studio can't open it, that means that you will first have to roll back the app: 

1. go to https://web.powerapps.com/
2. click Apps
3. find your app in the list, and click "..." then "Details"
4. click on the "Versions" tab
5. in the list of versions find one that is old enough to be using "PowerApps version" 3.18111.17 or earlier
6. click on the "..." for that version and "Restore" to it

You can now edit your app with 3.18111.17.  Note that this version will not be Live (seen by your users) until you "Publish" it.  You can see that in the "Published" column of that same app version list.

@eddyg Did this help?

To use app versions as a workaround is not optimal and would require a lot of work when deploying across a large user base.

It seems like the bug has been fixed at this stage so happy with that outcome.
