Dear All,
 
I want to create following flow in power automate:
 
1. Recurrence (i.e. every minute)
2. Find files in folders (.pdf file)
3. Get file content
4. convert file to image (.pdf to .jpg)
5. Compose Action (to convert .jpg to base64)
6. Send an Email (V2)
 
Actions 4 & 5, try to attach the image in the email body section. However, it is not working. I have attached an error screenshot below.
 
 
 
Please, suggest a solution - how to attach an image in an email body section
 
(Note: whole PDF has 6 pages, I need only 1st page as an attachment in an email body section)

    Use Compose action:

    data:image/jpeg;base64,@{base64(outputs('Get_file_content'))}

    Replace Get_file_content with the actual name of your action that retrieves the image content.

    HTML
    <p>Here is the first page of your PDF as an image:</p>
    <img src="data:image/jpeg;base64,@{base64(outputs('Get_file_content'))}" />
     
    If I have answered your question, please mark it as the preferred solution. If you like my response, please give it a Thumbs Up.
