SharePoint Online Image metadata extraction stopped working?

In the past in September, we have used below columns to extract picture/image metadata w.r.t location in SharePoint Online: wic_System_GPS_Latitude wic_System_GPS_Longitude It worked brilliantly...

Hi,
The default picture libraries do not let you export the Meta information to excel.

 

However, you can use web part to do that.

Here are the detailed steps:

1. Create a web part page or edit a existed web part page.

2. Add a web part and choose the picture library stored the images.

3. Modify this web part, select which meta need to be exported by Edit the current view and set the Toolbar Type to Full toolbar, you will find the Export To Spreadsheet in the Action menu.

 

Hope the information can be helpful.

    John Nikhil,

     

    Its not that we are having trouble exporting metadata to Excel, its that the picture libraries no longer extract the EXIF data from the pictures so that we can get the longitude and latitude values from them.
