Insert Rich Text Attachment into Rich Text Field in Outlook Email

I'm capturing images within the Rich Text control on my Power App - model driven - Dataverse app.

When I put the rich text field into the Outlook control in Power Automate, the result is a frame with no image inserted.

From the Feedback table the HTML shows the GUID for the image within the field.

The images are stored in a table called Rich Text Attachment with a GUID.

What am I missing?  Does someone have a flow that is able to export images that they can share as a visual?

    Are you able to get hold of that image from that table into your flow?

     

    I've had this issue with grabbing an image from SharePoint and embedding it into an email to show in Outlook. Without the below formatting it would not show. In your case you'd have to search and replace the img tag in the RTF with the new image from the compose.

     

    I fetched the image with a Get File Content (SP action), and then encode it thus:

    where body/$content is 

    body('Get_file_content_using_path_of_Table_jpg')['body']['$content']

    I had some serious assistance from James L.  Screen capture of the Child flow we built that is fed the rich text field.  The output is the HTML string that is needed to include the images that are stored in different Dataverse table from the text.
