Unable to send CameraDialog image from NetworkRequest to server

PhilPonce

I have created an asmx web service to accept images via NetworkRequest which works fine in development.  I'm sending the image using the following code snippet:

var body = {
"f": "json"
,"tags": fname
,"file": "@+fname
};
send( body )

For development, the fname = "C:/Users/<username>/Pictures/IMG_1668636844943.jpg"  ("file:///" was removed to avoid the "Type error") works fine.

When I use my Pixel 7 to upload the image using the same code, it fails to call the web service at all.  However, when I comment out the "file" line in the body it calls the service and returns an error.

The image name from the Pixel 7 is "storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.appstudio.player/files/Pictures/IMG_20221116_nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.jpg"

When trying to load this image from the device, the web service is never even called.  Is there a way to trap the error within NetworkRequest as to why this fails?

Hi @PhilPonce,

Try checking out the Quick Report template to see how it is implementing adding attachments using NeetworkRequests. Start with the controls/pages/AddPhotosPage.qml which will use a custom component PictureChooser.qml. This will show how to find/use the correct file pathing where the image is stored. Under controls/FeatureServiceManager.qml, there are several NetworkRequest components being used to complete different types of request. Once has an id: uploadAttachmentNetworkRequestComponent.

Best,

Trevor
