No, but you can view the photos through the "gallery" view or throught the "card" view. 

Thank for the reply, in my case some of employees are not comfortable to use appsheet to view the uploaded images or pdf files but they prefer links in googlesheets cells if possible.

You may want to take a look at the following sample app.

Images in sheets - AppSheet

However,  in general, giving access to the backend database of an app to all the app users is not a good idea. In general, it is a better practice to allow users to interact with the data through app views only.

Thank you

Then why are you using AppSheet at all?

Indeed.

I believe AppSheet is a great tool and will be very beneficial for the company in the future. Many tasks are still done on paper, so I want to make it as easy as possible to use.
