base64 embed in email not working

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by MrCrow 16

Hey there!   Found a few online sources on how to embed a photo into an email (From a sharepoint folder) using base64.   

 

From what I can tell, I have the process correct from what I found online, but its not working.

Using outlook, and the email I am getting is blank.    Anyone familiar that can take a look at what I have?

    Hi @MrCrow ,

     

    At my knowledge, this depends on the user's mailbox.

    Outlook365 Mail can display base64 image, but Google Mail cannot display it with the same html body.

    Hope it helps.

     

    Best Regards,

    Hi @MrCrow 

     

    You need to convert the image to base64 in the send to an email action. You can use "base65" formula to do the same:

    I have tested in web outlook.
