No item image is displayed in Canvas

Hi @andersgMSFT,

I created this sample following the steps in Fork the Repository.

Should the canvas app display image of an items?

Hi Bojan

Yes, it definitely should show the image inside the app :)

It looks like you did run the sample data generator, and the image is added to the item.

Do the images show up in the menu/list view?

Another thing I would like to see if to open the item in "edit-mode" (or maker-mode). And see if there are any issues.

If your fork is public we can take a look and see if there is anything that stands out

Hi Anders,

lmage is not visible anywhere within the canvas app.

Looks like I'm having trouble with resource 'itemsWithImage' (/businessCentralDemos/TakeOrder/beta). Other resources are ok.
Removing and adding the source back doesn't help either. No problems in Postman, tho.

Bojan

Thanks!

I'll take a look and get a back to you! :)

Ok, thanks.

In the meantime, I managed to get the app working with a sligty changed API page (itemsWithImage - picture field as a Base64 string) and a custom connector for the BusinessCentralDemos/TakeOrder/beta resource with slight changes to the Canvas app. I was able to add a data connection to a my custom connector.

Sorry for the slow response time!

We found a bug in the Power Platform connector, that causes issues with APIs starting with "items".

It sounded like you might have already found a workaround. If not, changing the API name to something that does not start with "Items" should help fix the issue.

We're rolling out a fix for the connector and anticipate it will be live in about a week, so after that, all APIs should be functioning again.

Thanks for trying the sample and reporting the issue! If you have more questions or feedback, we are happy to hear them!

Thanks, np.

Just wanted to test ALM for PP and BC artifacts and discovered this issue.I'm transitioning from BC to work more on PP so I wanted this app to work and try different things. So I found a solution with my custom connector just because I wanted to learn and try more things with PP and custom connectors.
