Hi Guys

I don't know how to do this. I add the Name Database to IQC Inspection Apps. All the data is working but the images link is broken. Where is the location to add this link in the editor and How to write the string?

Can I choose not to move anything

Unfortunately, no. Because AppSheet is using relative pathing, there a certain portion of the path, the "root", that is fixed - per app. In an app that uses a database, this "root" path is the Default App Folder. The REST of the path to the file or image is what is stored in the column.

So the only way to share files between apps is if the "root" is the same. To make the "root" the same, other folders impacted by that change would also need to be moved.
