Uploading images: Photo Uploader widget
Analysts can use the Photo Uploader widget to upload images from an
iPhone, iPad, or Android device. A user can choose to take a new photo to use
as an image, use an existing image on his mobile device, or delete images.
For example, you can add the Store attribute to the widget’s Grid/Graph, and
then add a prompt to the document to allow users to select a store. Users can
run the document, then select the store in which they are taking a picture
with their mobile devices. When the image is uploaded, the name of the store
is stored in the user’s data source, along with the description of the image
and the location in which the image is stored. For steps to create prompts,
see Allowing users to filter data: prompts, page 25.
