How to view images from one app from another?

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A

Hi friends, question.

I have a central app called “Nodal” that manages a system’s interface. The app contains interface images, and when they are uploaded to the app, links to the Google directory are automatically saved in the database. From this app, I add or remove sections of the system.

The “Nodal” tables are in another app, but they are read-only. This is so I can display the display for each of the modules.

The fact is that in the modules, I would like to see the images uploaded to the Nodal app.

Has anyone done this before?

What are the steps to configure it?

Okay. Apparently, AppSheet doesn’t require a directory to place images; it simply creates one if the value in ‘Image/File folder path’ is empty. This is very intuitive. The same doesn’t happen from another app (or at least not in my case).

If an image-containing table is loaded from another app and that table is read-only, it seems necessary to set the ‘Image/File folder path’ to ‘table_name_images’. To maintain order, I would set it in both cases, both in the read-only app and in the app where images are added. Anyway, I’ve solved it by adding the file folder path.
