app is able to access my database, except for the corresponding image

Mon Sep 17, 2012 4:40 am

My app is able to access my database, except for the corresponding image. It shows a broken link symbol when it gets the picture. I wonder if i have the incorrect URL? I'm using the Tiggzi database.

In the data mapping, the url is mapped to the asset of an image. The url i'm testing with is: https://api.tiggzi.com/rest/1/db/file...

the url i got from the database panel: https://api.tiggzi.com/rest/1/db/files/
the file name listed in the DB:1efcadcf-dfb6-4bb0-8516-c507909e81c8.Amethyst.gif
The file i uploaded: Amethyst.gif

What do you think?

Hello! To get it working you should pass the Database Id parameter (X-Tiggzi-Database-Id) as header. You also need to send X-Tiggzi-Session-Token header.

Session token is different from database id. You get a session token when a user logs in: http://help.gotiggr.com/getting-start...

OK, that tutorial helped. I created my REST service automatically with Create New Database Services. It looks good.

It still loads everything except the image from the tiggzi database.

Do you also read the image as binary? It shows how to do it at the very end of the tutorial: http://help.gotiggr.com/getting-start...

Yes, I set it to read the binary. And I invoke the service with Page Show.

Here are the screenshots:

Should base64data be inside the array?

I don't know. I'm just following the tutorial, which made it look seperate from the array. I can try adding it to the array.

How does your URL look? To get an email, it has to be URL in this format:
]https://api.tiggzi.com/rest/1/db/file...
