    Hello,
    If I have a form containing fields of type ‘Photo’ is it possible to import CSV records to populate those fields? I can imagine specifying a URL for those fields and Tap Forms populating the photo with the data at that URL.

    Thanks,
    nall.

    Hi Jon,

    You can reference a photo by the name of the file in a CSV file. But you need to copy the photos into the Tap Forms Photos folder located here:

    without iCloud enabled:

    ~/Library/Containers/com.tapforms.mac/Data/Documents/Photos

    with iCloud enabled:

    ~/Library/Mobile Documents/FXLPHZS84D~com~clickspace~tapforms/Documents/Photos

    Where ~ is your home folder.

    Once you’ve copied the photos into the Photos folder, you can import the CSV file and Tap Forms will generate a preview image for you for each of the photos as you view the records in your form.

    Thanks!

    Brendan
