How to best save and load images

Spiller — Wed, 20 Apr 2022 13:25:55 GMT

Hi all,

For a dashboard with product data the business also wants to show the images of these products. These images are currently stored a sharepoint site. Maintenance wise that works best, but i see that the images are not always displaying via Qlik Sense.

The sharepoint is open for all users that have access to the QS dashboard, but the users sometimes need to login seperately to see the images. Only that's not something they will see in the QS dashboard. There they will just see a broken image.

Is there a better way to store and display the images (+-200)?

Regards,

Spiller

Thanks, but that doesn't answer the question on where to save the images the best. To be assured that they will always show. I have read somewhere else that the image names could sometimes be the culprit as well, in case it has spaces in it. Is that still the case?

Unfortunately these options are not available.

If I load the images into the Qlik media library is there a standard url (format) on how I can load them in the app? When I check now I can only see how to load them 1 by 1 via the Insert option, but that's not something I want.
