Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hi,
A few days ago I asked for help on this same issue and marked it as solved since I thought it was but it was not in fact. Solved: Embedded image not showing in email body - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)

I've followed the spets suggested in this post Solved: Problem with an embedded image in Outlook email b... - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com), and for me, everything was working well. I could see all the images in the email when I received it. However, some of the other recipients are experiencing an issue. Any suggestions on how I can resolve this?

This depends on their email inbox and the client they use for viewing their mail. This is normal for embedded images. base64 encoded images are actually blocked by most web mail clients, and that's what you've got there in your screenshot.

A safer way to embed an image would thus be hosting it somewhere online and then embedding it via a URL, instead of a base64 encoded string. This will usually not be blocked by most clients.

An example code for that would be as follows:

<img src="/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/blog/-illustration-email-embedding-images.png?w=640" alt="img" />

If your image is static, you can just host it somewhere manually and use the URL. If it's dynamic, this will require that you build the actions to host the image first into your flow before you can actually use it in the email body.
