Embed image into automated email from Sharepoint list

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 126

I have a flow set up whereby an email is sent when a new item is added to a sharepoint list and pulls through dynamic content from the list itself (see below)

I have another column on my list for images (see below called 'ID Picture') and I need this image embedding into the email body or even an attachment. Any help welcome!

    Hey @Jtaylor95 

     

    Is the Picture an Hyperlink?

     

    If yes, please try to use <img> label in HTML, then the image could be checked on Outlook Web.

    <img src="@{triggerOutputs()?['body/Picture']}" alt="Picture" width="500" height="600">

    No its not an attachment either. I want the image to be pulled from Sharepoint List and embedded as an image into the email body

    Re: Embed image into automated email from Sharepoint list

    Hi @Jtaylor95 ,

     

    I have made a test for your reference.

    1. Here is my SharePoint list.

    vyujincuimsft_0-1653552336907.png

    2. Here is my flow.

    _api/web/Lists/getByTitle('listname')/items(@{triggerOutputs()?['body/ID']})?$select=ImageColumnName
     json(body('Send_an_HTTP_request_to_SharePoint')?['d']['ImageColumnName'])['fileName']
    concat('/SiteAssets/Lists/yourfoldername/',variables('image1filename'))
    <img style="display:block;" src="data&colon;image/jpg;base64,@{body('Get_file_content_using_path')['$content']}" alt="ImageColumn1" border="0" width="300" height="300">

    Can you clarify how to enter the 'listname' in the below? 

    _api/web/Lists/getByTitle('listname')/items(@{triggerOutputs()?['body/ID']})?$select=ImageColumnName

      

    I've tried 'Salaried_Employee_Test' and also 'salariedemployeetest' but its not recognising the list?
