The image recognizer is working with camera photos and photo library (as shown in this [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llA9OiGMD24)). However when I am trying to get Image Recognizer to work on an image file in my Thunkable app: [Thunkable](https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/6142eb563008c00011890235) , its not working. Plz note that only car is clickable in the above project, and the intention is for it to show the description of the car image.

But it gives an error & asks to provide a valid image path. Plz refer to the attached error screenshot.

its because the image you are providing is in asset and is just a name and not a path you need the full path of it maybe a staff can tell you how to access the asset using full path

You might need to store the images in Cloudinary so that you can use each image’s url in Thunkable.
