Hi @vandan230997 ,

 

As per this topic in the Power Apps community (Re: Convert URL image to Image in dataverse from P... - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)):

 

There's no way to convert a URL that points to an image, to an actual image.

You'd need to retrieve the actual image and to Patch that to your Dataverse column.

You may be able to automate this to some degree by creating a Power Automate Flow that carries out an 'HTTP Get' on the image and storing the result in your Dataverse column.

Hi  @Uzo001 ,

 

This is outside of the scope of the Power Up program, so I suggest that in case you are interested in exploring this further, you engage the Power Automate community: Microsoft Power Automate Community - Power Platform Community

wait, not in scope? I figured since the requirements are to import data it is in scope, same as setting up relation between tables on the import.

Image upload can be fully automated with PowerAutomate flow. The way I did it is I saved these jpegs from github to OneDrive and then used Get file contets by name connector, passed file name from the input file and used  dataverse connector to upload it to the table.

Hi @TvzR ,

 

Importing the data is in scope, but knowing how to automate the import is not. The course material is designed for starters, but of course that does not prohibit you from doing it so kudos for you to figuring it out. 

 

I mentioned it (automating the importing of images) is out of scope to not confuse learners that may have a harder time doing the course than you do.

When I try to open the URL for the images, I get a "connection failure" message. I was able to access a photo using a link a couple hours ago, but now I can't.
