Download the media files on your PowerApp

[indhaa]

Any idea how to download the gif file in your PowerApps. I need to use the spinner on another app and doesn't have the file on my PC. Can't see the save as option on PowerApps.

Can you clarify, is this a one off task that you want to carry out to retrieve an image that you don't have (as opposed to adding a download feature for users of your app)?

Hi @indhaa,

Just found a workaround for the lack of a download option:

For info, another workaround for the lack of a download option is this.

First, save the app locally as an msapp file using the File > Save As option.

An msapp file is just a ZIP file with an msapp extension. On your local machine, rename the file so that it has a ZIP extension, and uncompress the file. There, you'll find an "Assets" sub folder and all the media files will be there.
