Hello,  
Can anyone suggest me on how to store Images in Airtable?  
If you can provide some relevant blocks, It would be great!  
Means, I want the user to press the Screenshot btn, and an auto screenshot happens, whose image is stored in AirTable Table…  
So I have a problem with Screenshot as well…  
Can there be an alternative to Screenshot?

Kartik :)😀

In AirTable, you store a link to an image that is stored in the cloud. This link will be available after you save the image to the storage and you can immediately write it to AirTable.

I think I will need to do this manually. There will be ~850 member’s receipt images.  
How can I code my app for this? This seems a good Idea!

An experienced user does not do such tasks manually. Think about how this can be automated.
