Flow that include user to include a photo

[scaffnull]

Hello everyone,

Before I start designing my flow I would like to ask the community if anyone have done a similar flow before, I'm not sure if I should use PowerApps or Forms to create my goal.

I would like to create a PowerAutomate Flow where one specific user in my organization can report date, location, type of job and 2 other questions that are yes/no answer, then also take a picture and include in the request.

I guess that is my biggest questions, to create something like this in either Forms or PowerApps? The Flow part I have done where I will create a SharePoint to gather the information and also collect the picture that is taken there.

Thanks for any suggestions/ help 🙂

Hi @shalizamalik ,

Do you save the data in sharepoint and allow only certain people to add records?

I suggest you use powerapps to achieve this feature. I have a test on my side please try the following workaround.

I create these columns in SharePoint, the Pic column must be Multipe lines of text.

Then create an app form SharePoint.

In EditForm, set the OnChange property of AddMediaButton1 to:

Set(VarPic,Substitute(JSON(UploadedImage1.Image,JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData),"""",""))

Set the Update property of Pic_Datacard to:

VarPic

In DetailForm1, add a Image control and set the Image property of Image1 to:

ThisItem.Pic

About the function of allowing only designated persons to upload records, we could achieve by setting the visible property of New, Edit and Save Icons.

Set the Visible property of Icons to

If(User().FullName="Zhi Chen",true,false)

It will show like this.

Best Regards,

Zhi Chen
