Dear CookieNamtarn,

Handling images in an excel sheet is already very troublesome when you do this manually ... I cannot image that there is a way that doing this via a flow would be any easier (likely it is even worse).

I am not saying that you cannot populate an image in excel (I do not know how), but I suggest that you look seriously at other options. There must be very strong reasons for wanting to do anything with images in excel.

Is there not a way that you can manage the data and images separately? For example, keep all the images in a sharepoint folder and include a link/URL to the image in the excel (have a column with link)? As such you use Excel as intented (work with data), but you still have a combination of data and image.

Hope the suggestion helps,
Happy flowing,
Koen

Hi @CookieNamtarn , do you find a option to populate images to Excel? There is the new action "Populate in Excel" from Encodian. Maybew that would be helpful.
