I have been trying to get images from a shared drive (to which every user of the App has access) to show in my App, to no avail. I have tried several different things in an attempt to get this to work, but none of them seem to make a difference.
My table has a column "Artwork ID", which contains the ID of the image file in the shared drive. I am then attempting to use a virtual column with the type "Image" to render the images in the App using the formula `=CONCATENATE("https://drive.google.com/uc?id=", [Artwork ID])`. This results in a grey exclamation mark in the area where the image should be.
I have tried the following:
- Making a shortcut to the specific shared drive folder inside the "My Drive/appsheet/data/[project-name]" folder, with no improvement
- Moving a test image to that location itself, with the same issue
- Making a copy of the App to the shared drive, in which the images still did not render
All of the app users have access to the shared drive.
Ideally, the images would be in product-specific subfolders inside the shared drive. Is this feasible? Please let me know what options I have, as all the examples above from other solutions have not worked. Thanks!
