Re: Yellow triangle instead of my icons

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with my app.

I want to place icons next to the category name but i only get that yellow triangle.

I downloaded .png and .svg from https://fonts.google.com/icons, place them in my google drive and created the links but it does not work. Here images of how im doing it.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the help.

Steve

I didn't even know it was possible to put an image in a category header! How are you attempting this?

MRosende

Hi Steve,

Actually i use a prototype app from google jaja, the Inventory Management App, there all ready was this feature created, you can check it there but here is the table in my app:

Originally the icon was a link to the same site but i change it to a direct file.

Steve

What is the URL the app is trying to use to get the image?

MRosende

Now o before?

Now is: - Items_Images/Consumo.png

- Items_Images/oficina.png

Items_Images/Aseo.svg

Before was:

https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/i/googlematerialicons/construction/v5/gm_blue-48dp/2x/gm_construction_gm...

Both are valid methods

Are you sure "consumo.png" is there?

MRosende

Absolutely.

Can you share a screenshot of the expressions you are using for that column?

MRosende

Sorry im not sure what you are asking, can you send a screenshot of that?

EliK

The "Expression" field of the "Icono" Column.

MRosende

Its empty

Google Drive links are not public urls.

You need something like this:

What you're doing should work.

@Steve it's appearing in the header because he marked it as a label.

@MRosende just make sure that the Drive folder that the images are stored in is the same folder (or a subfolder) as the spreadsheet that the App is based on. Appsheet uses file location in relation to the folder that the spreadsheet is saved in. You can easily move the spreadsheet to be in the same folder without messing up the app.
