Use device variable (date and time) for the file name of a photo taken with QuickCapture and/or edit file name of a photo taken with QuickCapture

[BronwenHughes]

I would like to create meaningful file names for photos taken with QuickCapture - either by using the date and time of the photo capture and/or by providing the option to create a file name for the photo when taking it.

Currently, photos captured via QuickCapture and exported as attachments (from a downloaded geodatabase)  are assigned meaningless file names as per the  ATT_NAME field in the attachments table:

I would like to change the names of the *.jpg files in the ATT_NAME table to be <date_time>.jpg or <free text desc>.jpg at the time of photo capture

NB: the script I use to export the attachments also uses the values in the  ATTACHMENTID field of the attachments table as a prefix in the photo file name :

Hi @BronwenHughes - This is currently not possible in the app. Can you please raise this as an enhencement through QuickCapture Ideas?

Thanks
