I'm working on App Shortcuts function with AppIntentsExtension which is recommended in WWDC22. But I'm struggled to download or show image after shortcut is executed. Here are main functions:

    
    func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult &amp; ShowsSnippetView &amp; ReturnsValue&lt;URL> {
        let requestURL = URL(string: "https:&#x2F;&#x2F;cdn.leonardo.ai&#x2F;users&#x2F;3e2e4dd4-8b59-4eac-b8c1-e6a89d88da2c&#x2F;generations&#x2F;1db4905a-4593-4f49-9d9f-1179221c0ee3&#x2F;Leonardo_Signature_A_pretty_animation_girl_3.jpg")!
        let result = FileDownloader.loadFileSync(url: requestURL)
        &#x2F;&#x2F; BTW I don&#039;t see any log

 in Xcode Consle
        print("Generate image finished")
        &#x2F;&#x2F; Not work with or without PictureView
       &#x2F;&#x2F; Also tried only return result URL, not work either
        return .result(value:result, view: PictureView(url: requestURL))
    }

struct PictureView: View {
    var url: URL

    var body: some View {
        ZStack{
            &#x2F;&#x2F; Cannot show nothing
            AsyncImage(url: url)
            
            &#x2F;&#x2F; This shows
            Image(systemName: "photo.on.rectangle.angled")
                .symbolRenderingMode(.monochrome)
                .resizable()
                .scaledToFit()
                .frame(minWidth: 50, minHeight: 50)
        }
    }
}

Simply saying, I want to just show a image from url or download it so that I can check it out in Photos, using App Intents Extension.

I don't think you can use AsyncImage in the snippet. For exemple, you can't use it in Widget neither. so try use Image in your view and in your perform result also fetch the uiImage before passing it to the view.
