Grid stops updating automatically when adding Image Field

Hello,

I am facing a weird behavior with grid.

I am population grid with an infotable, I call it 'data_IT' . 'data_IT' is a property of a thing 'Thing_A'

In the mashup, I associate the 'data_IT' to the grid using the service getproperties. and i check 'Automatically update values when...' so, when a row is updated, it's replicated automatically in my mashup.

Everything works fine until I added a new field of type 'Image'. The automatic update stop working !

When i remove the image field, it's works fine again!!

Is there any solution for this bheavior ?

Thank you for you help

Hi @AliBenBelgacem

Which version of ThingWorx are you running?

Which grid widget are you using? Have you tried a different one to see if the behavior is consistent?

Regards.

Thingworx version is 9.5.1 . I use the default widget grid.

I found an other alternative. I use ImageLink instead of Image. The images are stored in my repository.

It solve the problem
