List photos from files collection

[George Pillari7662383]

Is there a List Service or other straightforward way to list a photo and its name in my app? Apparently, there is no simple way to do this like there is for pulling data from a normal collection. Quite frustrating since the tutorials make it so easy to build the app to take and store the pictures.

Hello George,

You can get files list:

Also create direct link to a file according to files names as shown here:

struggling here. Documentation says I need a session token to read/view the Files collection. Was hoping I could do this through the interface without writing custom code. Got as far as creating a Service for viewing the Files, but stumped in the field where it says to add Session Token. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi George -

Could you please clarify, you have implemented Login functionality inside your app?
If yes, you can check out our tutorial here for understand how to work with session token -- https://devcenter.appery.io/tutorials...

Or you can directly use your Files collection in your app, you can find how to make it in our recent blog post -- https://blog.appery.io/2015/09/learn-...
