AppSheet: Working with Images

A few days ago, the images I was loading from Google Drive stopped displaying, and I was surprised to discover this situation. I didn't know this change had been made. Does anyone have any information about it? Thanks.

I wanted to inform you about an important update concerning the display of images and documents hosted on Google Drive within your AppSheet app. Currently, URLs like drive.google.com/file are not supported for displaying images and documents. This means that the images hosted on Google Drive using these URLs might not display correctly in your app.

To resolve this issue, you may need to host these images on a different platform that allows public access and then use the URL of the publicly accessible image in the app's Show type column.

As an example, we have tested this with a dummy URL from Google Images, and it worked seamlessly in your app.

For more detailed guidance, please refer to this article: AppSheet: Working with Images and Documents.

If you have any further questions or need assistance with this process, please do not hesitate to reach out."
