Hey! Not sure I am following, what do you mean by folder? If it is about [Wix Forms file upload](https://support.wix.com/en/article/accessing-files-submitted-through-the-file-upload-field-in-wix-forms) , then you will need to contact Wix Customer Care as they know best. [https://support.wix.com/en/article/contacting-wix-customer-care-for-support](https://support.wix.com/en/article/contacting-wix-customer-care-for-support) In regards to your question about the URL of the image uploaded, I feel like we also require some further clarification regarding the matter. If you are referring to a default Products Collection, it has Read-Only permissions so you can’t really upload anything to it via code. [https://support.wix.com/en/article/corvid-wix-stores-products-collection-fields](https://support.wix.com/en/article/corvid-wix-stores-products-collection-fields) Please elaborate on the issue you are encountering and explain the exact actions you are trying to perform.

i have same problem, how can i solve? I want user upload a photo then i connect cms dataset to galery viewer. I want to see user uploaded photo will be seen in galery but uploaded photos are in only visitor uploads file. I want “user can see in galery in a few seconds” time is not important. ---

That’s definitely frustrating. The issue may stem from the “Visitor Uploads” folder not providing accessible external URLs, so the `addProductMedia()` function can’t use those images. It might help to upload the image separately to your Media Manager (where you can get a proper URL), then use that link with `addProductMedia()` to attach the image to your product.
