Camera image duplicates for each Gallery item

[Data_Enthusiast]

Hello Power Apps Community,

Scenario: I am creating a page where you can take a picture of various items - within a Gallery.

Issue: I can capture an image, however when I take images of more Gallery items, the images are replicated for all items - as seen below.

I would appreciate any help 🙂

Thank you in advance.

The image usually takes one of the columns in your table.

If the images are not in a table but saved locally in your app, then try the local table below:

Set( MyImagesTable,

Table(

{ ImageColumn:MyPic1},

{ ImageColumn:MyPic2},

{ ImageColumn:MyPic3}

))

So on your Gallery items put MyImagesTable, then the Image within the Gallery ImageColumn

Hi @eka24

The Items property of my Gallery is referencing a SharePoint list which provides the product names. I get an error message when I add the additional formula - that you kindly provided, to the Items property of the Gallery. 

Error: Behavior function in a non-behavior property.

Please clarify for me.

You dont have a column for Image for the Sharepoint List and you want to add it now?

If  so then for each image you take, update the Sharepoint list image column.

Or Create a Collection that combines the image and the existing sharepoint list

Hi @eka24 

Correct, I do not have a column in my list to store the image, but I would like to add it.

The Gallery is referencing a list that holds the Master list of products, and the list that I would like to Patch to is a different SP list (for transaction type data) - which is where the image column is. 

SP List 1: Master Products List

SP List 2: Patching transaction based data to

Gallery: Referencing SP List 1 in terms of products. But the additional info being captured such as the image must go to SP List 2 - along with the associated product name.

So for each image you take, update the sharepoint column.

Hi @eka24 

I followed the steps identified in the video but unfortunately it did not resolve the issue.

When I stored the photo's taken in a Collection, I get the following:

When I Patch the collection to SharePoint, the column where the image is meant to populate remains blank.

I have tested this outside a Gallery and got it right - by assigning each Image item a variable, but this is not a sustainable solution.

For anyone who comes across this, I managed to solve this by doing the following:

Create a Collection for your images being taken:

Collect(CameraPhoto, {Photo: Camera.Stream, FileName: Title.Text});

On the Gallery (Items), use AddColumns to add the Collection:

AddColumns('SP List', "FilePhoto", LookUp(CameraPhoto, FileName = Name, Photo))

 Then add the following to your Image control:

ThisItem.FilePhoto
