Bad request with Google Drive images

Hi,

I’ve used to display images off google drive with the formula below for quite some time, and it worked just fine.

“=CONCATENATE(“https://www.appsheet.com/template/gettablefileurl?appName=”, ENCODEURL(“AppName”), “&tableName=”, ENCODEURL(“SheetName”), “&fileName=”, ENCODEURL(Cell))”

Today I’ve logged in and suddenly all the image links getting a “bad request” error.
Has something changed in the servers or so ?

Call to Action for Apps Constructing URLs to GetTableFileUrl Announcements

Well, Good to know that…

Same issue, security setting changed, i can see old image as well.
Could be good to let know users that same security changes are planned.

Hi, Is there any suggestion on what to next ? I really need those old images

I suggest contacting support@appsheet.com. They might have a suggestion.

Like Steve said, please do contact support about these. A developer will need to take a look at the individual apps/images not working to see what is going wrong. Older images in apps should not be broken.
