Take Photo and use as Profile Pic

[Matt Simoncavage]

Hi, I have the cordova plugin installed that allows me to take a photo with my phone's camera and upload it to the database. This is working well as I can see the photo I took appear on the page and also in the Files collection of my database. I'm stuck on the next step, however. How can I connect it from the Files collection to a user in the User's collection to be used as that user's profile picture?

Hi Evgene,

I read through the link you sent and it seems like it will be very helpful. I'm going to give it a try later in the day. I just had one question: The forum in the link starts with a request for instructions to implement on a web app using a file upload. My question is, will this method still work using a mobile devices camera to take the photo instead? And if so, is there anything additional I need to know to start?

Thanks!

Hello Matt,

Probably this doc will have more sense here https://devcenter.appery.io/tutorials...

Hey I know that question is old but can you explain to me a way for the Cordova plugin image to be seen not only on the Cordova upload page but on different images on different pages.
