Many Thanks for all that Tutorial...its help me alot...

I've triy this tutorial...

HOWTO: Get the ID of Image after uploading using base64

 and copy paste and modified the script...i want not only the get the ID image but the File Name too...

i made modification like this...sory i really newbie at Google Apps Script

function doGet(e) {
 return message("Error: no parameters in doGet");
   
}

function doPost(e) {
  if (!e.parameters.filename || !e.parameters.file || !e.parameters.imageformat) {
    return message("Error: Bad parameters in doPost");
  } else {
    var imgf = e.parameters.imageformat[0].toUpperCase();
    var mime =
        (imgf == 'BMP')  ? MimeType.BMP
      : (imgf == 'GIF')  ? MimeType.GIF
      : (imgf == 'JPEG') ? MimeType.JPEG
      : (imgf == 'JPG')  ? MimeType.JPEG
      : (imgf == 'PNG')  ? MimeType.PNG
      : (imgf == 'SVG')  ? MimeType.SVG
      : false;
    if (mime) {
      var data = Utilities.base64Decode(e.parameters.file, Utilities.Charset.UTF_8);
      var blob = Utilities.newBlob(data, mime, e.parameters.filename);
     
      //get the image file ID like this:
      var imageID = DriveApp.getFolderById('myfolderIDlink').createFile(blob).getId();
      var imageName = DriveApp.getFolderById('myfolderIDlink').createFile(blob).getName();
     
      //append the ID to your spreadsheet like this:
      var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('SSIDlink');
      var sh = ss.getSheets()[0];
      sh.appendRow([imageID, imageName]);
     
      return message("Success");
    } else {
      return message("Error: Bad image format");
    }
  }
}

function message(msg) {
  return ContentService.createTextOutput(JSON.stringify({Result: msg })).setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON);
}

and the result is, i get the file name too...but in my google drive...everytime i upload image,its always make 2 same file image...

is there anything wrong with the script?

i not change the block...just renew the link everytime i made some change in script...

[TimAI2]

Try changing

var imageName = DriveApp.getFolderById('myfolderIDlink').createFile(blob).getName();

to

var imageName = DriveApp.getFileById('imageID').getName();

[Ezra Epriputra]

Thanks...its work...

I try to find the tutorial about compressing image size with app inventor...but couldnt get any...

So after get image from camera, i need to compressing before send it to google drive...

Help me if you have link tutorial about compressing image size...and thanks before for your help always teach me...

[TimAI2]

Try Taifun's Image extension, it has a resize feature

or, if you do not want to use an extension, you could try loading the image into a canvas then doing a canvas.saveas, you have no control over the output, but it may reduce things, depending on the size of the canvas ?

[Ezra Epriputra]

I try to combine resize process and uploading image to Google Drive...

the resize process is succes...but i dont know how to upload the resize image to google drive..

its always the not resizing image uploaded into google drive...

please teach me the right block..here is my aia

[TimAI2]

Are you saving the resized file ? It could be that the resized image/data is only in memory and you will need to save it first before uploading ? Or perhaps save as a different image...?

[Ezra Epriputra]

okay thanks...i think i prefer use Canvas because it's have low size with sharp image...

is all canvas image extension is .png?
