When I upload an image to Glide through my app, it says the upload failed. When I upload an image to the same field in Airtable, it just uploads. What could be driving this? How can I fix it?

Here’s a video with context showing the message “Upload Failed” popup when trying to log a new item in my outfit database/daily log app: [Loom | Free Screen & Video Recording Software | Loom](https://www.loom.com/share/dd9977aa4156492aa01c65839825586e)

free apps have limits… you can upgrade your plan or use external rows of data:

> **[External Data Glide](https://external-data-glide.glideapp.io/)**

> Super fast external data storage

That was the issue. I upgraded to a paid plan. I wish it would’ve just said that in plain text with the error message!! Thanks @Uzo
