Ok So i have a Excel Database that i import via CSV. I made a search app to type in a word or Numbers to search the database.

I want to be able to See a image after i search for a Certain Number.

If I type in "H374786" and its shows the Title of the item, I want it to also show a picture of the item.

How can I or what can i do so that any serial i put in it shows a pictures to that certain serial?

Hello Anthony,

Would you kindly let me know is there a link on the image corresponding to certain serial in your database? If it is, you should specify the path to the image in the asset of the Image element.
By the way where do you keep all these pictures? you will need to load all images in the application, or place them on an external resource (Appery.io database or some external site).

Anthony,

If you will keep images in Appery.io database, you should load these images to Appery.io database and you should add the names of the images from this database to your table . And then in the application you should use the direct link to the files in Appery.io database http://devcenter.appery.io/documentat...

Hi Anthony,

For example you can use image autogenerator.

See details: http://dummyimage.com

Generating image with custom text example:
http://dummyimage.com/300x300&text=12...!

If you willing to upload your own files into Appery.io please take a look how you can do it:
