Hello, I want to create a post after the “ToPost\_Button” is clicked and a new row is created in Airtable, finally navigating the user to “Home”. I have done what you see in the image and although I have tried other ways it does not work. Thanks in advance and please attach an image of the block/s in the answer. ![Sin título](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/2/e/2e17792affc512dd211dd80cde096335772cee63.png) ---

What’s is not working? The row is not created in the table? Or it does not navigate to `home`? Or all? ---

Can you remove the image11 and run it without this field? Leave it unassigned or assign a text to it. ---

Yes, it works when I remove the image 11 but in what other way can I show that to the user? I thought variables would work and I was wrong ---

Airtable uses a field of type `Attachment` to store images and other file types. ---

Yes in my Airtable I have a column named “Pictures” with the field attachment, but it doesn´t save the image. ---

Airtable only supports files from fully qualified URLs so you might need to try to upload your image to cloudinary first and obtain the URL then use it for Airtable. I have not tried it myself but one thing I know is Airtable will not use local file path. ---

Thank you for your comments. I don’t consider my self good in explaining things. This is why I tend to create lots of project example. > [@itzvinie](#): > > So how do I use cloudinary integration with airtable,I think it’s time When you upload anything to `Cloudinary` you get the URL back. use this URL to save in your record in Airtable or google sheet. Airtable has a column type `Attachment` where you can upload files directly in it. Thunkable does not yet have a component to do that within the project. ---

That may be the problem, users will be uploading images on a daily,so means I can’t give that cloudinary right? ---

You can do that using the `cloudinary` with `MediaDB` component. Once your user uploads the image, `MediaDB` will respond with the `Cloudinary URL` to retrieve it. Save this URL in your Airtable in the **user’s post** record so you can retrieve it whenever required. ---
