Hi all, please see above for my flow. I am having difficulty filling a picture content control with a photo taken through forms. The photo is taken by a phone and appears to be a .jpeg.

 

The error for reference: The image is not of type PNG or JPG. Please provide an image of type PNG or JPG.

Any thoughts? Thank you in advance!

    hi @Anonymous  what you need to do is get the link from the image, to do that you need to use parse json

    See this example

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    We need to get the file content of the image and configure it in Picture content control.

    If the form is personal form, please refer to the following video to get file content:

    If the form is group form, please refer to the following thread to get file content.

    Thank you! I was able to get one photo inserted. I tried to test out getting more than one photo inserted but, seem to be running up against a file size limit, see below. Are we able to generate word files larger than 10MB?

     

    {
    "status": 400,
    "message": "The maximum supported size of the generated Word file is 10485760 bytes. Please check your size of the inputs and template document.\r\nclientRequestId: f96236d4-4083-4e0a-ab7e-0bc540532fb6",
    "error": {
    "message": "The maximum supported size of the generated Word file is 10485760 bytes. Please check your size of the inputs and template document."
    },

    hi @Anonymous  shure is a limit of the tool you can't add more images if the zise is more than 10mb.

    @ChristianAbata- understood, thank you. When the word document is sent as an attachment via email, it shows up as an attachment without a file type. I can choose the program that I want to open it with on the computer, but not on a mobile device. Any idea how I can send it such that it will open in word when clicked on?

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    Regard the maximum supported size, please check online doc:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/connectors/wordonlinebusiness/#known-issues-and-limitations

    About opening the file in mobile phone, we need to ensure that we have added the extension of the file, like:

    172.PNG

    And you may need to add the plugin in outlook mobile app or your phone has other applications to read .docx file.

     

    Best Regards,
