  • Hi YongSung,

    I suggest you follow the course plan just a bit more since as I see it, the next course is Tutorial: Building a Record where you will be able (with some guidance) to create a record based on your Vehicle Fleet Management application. I believe that in that tutorial will you learn to do what you asked in this post 

    Hope that this helps and that you are enjoying learning Appian 

  • Hello. To display an image in in the list, assuming you have a valid imageId (which the sample data should provide), you should add a new grid column and then configure it with a "document image" component. Make sure the Display Value points to the vehicleImage field (as your screenshot depicts) and then select Display Options to choose a document image. 

    The sample data should provide you with a list of vehicle images and corresponding image ids in a pre-loaded table. You just need to configure the column to display the data.

    Thank you for your reply, Pedro.

    I did follow the course "Tutorial: Building a Record",

    but still wasn't able to find a way to upload an image to the CDT:vehicleImage

    and use CDT:vehicleImage to bring image to my grid.

    By learning from the  "Records: Design and Build a View into Your Data",

    I think it will be possible to bring the image to the grid if I have the vehicleImage.

    I still don't know how to put data into the vehicleImage by using file upload(or is there another way?).

    1. What is the type of VehicleImage used in the display value(5th picture, it was used at the Records: Design and Build a View into Your Data online course) . Is it a document type?

    2. How do I put data into the vehicleImage by using file upload?

    It would be really nice if you add a little bit more explanation of uploading data to VehicleImage in the Records: Design and Build a View into Your Data course.
    Always thank full for your helps and services.
