I am able to successfully add HTML/XML formatted PVA response from flow to user/bot chat feed. However, when I try to include images I cannot get the image to load (they are represented in chat feed message as "Loading image...".

I rewrote image @src to full paths in response to PVA. The images are stored in Team's library. I even tried adding a closing tag to element (saw something about the need for xml formatting, but wasn't clear this was where that was required).

Is there a trick to getting images to load properly?

Hi @BenjaminDoyle

Markdown is only supported at this time, please be aware that not all markdown will work.

Make sure you test your markdown in small segments to make sure the outputs are what you’re expecting

Re: Including images in Flow PVA response to user

Thanks, @Jcook , I will test this. I'm curious, will have to rewrite/translate all my source markup as markdown, or will the output accept a mix? e.g.,

<div> <p>Some cool graphic:</p> <div>![Name]('https://....')</div> </div>

Hello @BenjaminDoyle

There is a workaround using markdown language.
