Attachments not synchronized on mobile device

[alpinfra]

Hi there,

I have developed an input mask for QField mobile device, where the field team can view locally stored JPGs through the attachment widget. I am able to upload them to QFieldCloud, but I cannot view/access them on my mobile device running QField Dev.

It works with regular QField.

I tried to find the locally stored QFieldCloud Project and move the JPG files in the local folder, but cannot find one. Mind that these JPGs are not intended to be edited or synchronized, I just need them copied once to the mobile device and be able to access them from the QField widget.
Also, when taking a picture in the field with the mobile device, synchronization works beautifully!

Any help?

Here is a snippet from the data list from this project, taken from a web browser. The JPGs were clearly uploaded:

In order to provide a clearer and more manageable discussion forum and to have all discussions about QField and related products (i.e. QFieldCloud and QFieldSync) in a single place, we transferred all the discussions from the QFieldCloud to the QField repository.

@alpinfra Hey, sorry for the delayed answer. Can you test with the latest beta and/or nighly builds? There was a small issue regarding photo syncrhonization that was fixed recently.

Also, please make sure the attachment form fields are configured to use "relative path" on QGIS.

The crash is due to mbtiles, as you jave noted. Back to your photos: there is a limitation that you need to store all your photos in a directory named DCIM , while your files are stored in a directory named JPG . When you rename the directory don't forget to update your data in the attribute table of the photos layer too.

Am i able to use subdirectories within DCIM? Would that work?

[suricactus]

yes, subdirs within DCIM are fine.

YESSS! I can confirm it works 👍 moved the /JPG folder into /DCIM/JPG and I am now able to view the attachments :)

Wohoo! 🎈 Happy QFieldClouding!

There is a limitation that you need to store all your photos in a directory named DCIM, while the files in your project are stored in a directory named JPG. You can have multiple subdirectories in the DCIM directory. When you rename the directory don't forget to update your data in the attribute table of the photos layer too.
