File getting corrupted in the transfer from child to parent

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 43

I have a child process which returns me a signature for emails. Problem is, that this signature has a picture in it.

If I try to send an email with it in the child process it works flawlessly, so reading it from Sharepoint works. Flow as follows:
Parent:

Child:

eskay_1-1679918008216.png

 

I guess it has to do something with that it is encoded in some way for the transport, but I have no clue how to solve it and some hourls later trying and googling im here.

Any help is appreciated.
