You can do this in an AirTable environment.

If you want to upload images from your application, then in AirTable you save a link to it, and the image itself can be saved to the repository using MediaDB. An example of blocks with MediaDB is by reference.

[https://docs.thunkable.com/thunkable-cross-platform/2-create/components/data-storage/media-db](https://docs.thunkable.com/thunkable-cross-platform/2-create/components/data-storage/media-db)

In these blocks, you need to replace the Realtime\_DB1.Save block with the Spreadsheet.SetCell block.

If you do not succeed, tomorrow I will set an example.

> I recently answered a question about retrieving and displaying images (or, more generally, attachments) stored in Spreadsheets and thought it might be useful to a larger audience. As far as Airtable images (and other attachments) are concerned, the returned value for an ‘Attachment’ type column in Airtable returns an array (i.e. a Thunkable List) of objects.
