Survey123 Photo OneDrive Upload Power Automate

Question

Hi Everyone,

I had a survey123 Power automate question. We currently do not have Power automate Premium. So, I can't use Http or the ArcGIS actions. I have to rely on none-premium actions. My current process is uploading file from URL. The Source URL being attach photo URL. The problem arises when I try to open the image in OneDrive, and it says unable to preview this file. Meaning that there is an issue with the way I am trying fetch the photos and upload it to OneDrive.

Yes, you need to use something like the HTTP GET action to retrieve the file from the URL.  (I know you don't have access to that).   It sounds like you're trying to use the URL when uploading the file directly in the OneDrive action.   That won't work.  The file size of the uploaded file should be your indication.  I'm guessing it's something like 2kb?

Hi Paul, thanks for responding. I used the photos url field for the source url and the photo name field for the Destination path. Do you think I need to change it up?

@MyEthiopia have you considered your file path and the extension on the file
