How to Access the Full Resolution Image of an Uploaded File

Where the full resolution files are stored

Updated over 3 weeks ago

When a user uploads an image to a form submission using the File component, that image can either be displayed directly in the form (and in the generated PDF) or appear as a link—depending on how the component is configured (for example, if “Display as image” is enabled).

If the image is displayed inline, what you see is actually a lower-resolution thumbnail. However, Team Forms always stores the original full-resolution image in your SharePoint library. If you need the full version, you can access it in a couple of ways:

Method 1: From the Submissions Table

  1. Hover over the form to reveal the “…” icon.

  2. Click “View submission” to open the table view of responses (each question shown as its own column).

  3. Find the response that contains the image. In the File/Attachments column, click the link.

This will open the file directly in SharePoint in its original resolution

Method 2: From the Individual Response

  1. Open the response that contains the uploaded files. You can do this from the Responses tab, the Submissions screen, or even via a direct link.

  2. In the top-right corner, click the “…” menu.

  3. Select “View in SharePoint.”

This will open the SharePoint folder containing all files for that submission, including:

  • The generated PDF

  • Any uploaded attachments (in full resolution)

  • Row data files (.json)

With these methods, you can always access the full resolution images exactly as they were uploaded, even if the form or PDF preview only shows a thumbnail.
