Media in Logiak

When we speak about Media in Logiak, we are talking about Images, Videos and Sounds.

There are two kinds of media - media which you record with Logiak Apps, and media which are included as part of the Logiak App configuration.

Here we are explaining the latter - how to use media within the configuration of an App.

Information regarding what is involved in recording media is found in Process documentation.

Using Media within Apps

Images, Videos and Audio can be used in all components, and in Process steps.

For almost all components images/videos can be set as backgrounds for head or body, as with the default Login component created with each App.

Gallery and Cards components are particularly concerned within Media.

Media can be used instead of links in Actions.

Media can be included within the Info component, via HTML or Markup, and can be done in exactly the same way for questions texts within Process interactions.

Media can be used also for various specialist reasons - such as a camera mask for the Photo interaction.

But what if you have media files which are not hosted anywhere?

Well, assuming you will be using either Supabase or Firebase as the backend, Storage is available with both of them.
