Open pictures stored in Dropbox on iPhone from a database opened in Filemaker Go

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I have a database which contains many photos. These photos are stored in my Dropbox, and are linked to the database through a container (only the reference is stored).

 

On my MacBook Pro, no problem.

 

But if I open my database on my iPhone (the database is hosted in the cloud by a provider), the link to the photo is, of course, dead.

 

How could I create another link (in another field) or script, to open the photo directly in the Dropbox app on my iPhone ?

 

 

One solution would be to store in the database the Dropbox URL for each photo and open it in the Web viewer but it is not very handy as each photo has then to be downloaded each time it is opened.

 

 

Any idea on how to use the Dropbox app from Filemaker Go ?

 

Thank you,

Arth
