Inserting image into Word Merge Table

Posted on by 154,793 Most Valuable Professional
Hi All,
First time I have tried this and this may be a bug with Word, but I have a need to add Images (actually signatures) into a Word Merge Table. I am using a third party form (Cognito), but have been doing so on Word merges for many years on single images and also Tables with Text with no issues. The test Flow below works (and runs with no errors) on everything except the Table images, which are blank. The signature control in the Form returns a standard image content, which can be plugged directly into a SharePoint Library or Attachment or create a file in OneDrive (necessary for Word Merge to accept the content of that), so it is completely "compatible" as far as format goes.
 
I can see the same format which appears to be valid base64 code on both the single image and the one in the Table. The Text in the Table works fine as expected as does both the single image and Text fields (highlighted parts) - I just have blank images in the Table.
and this is the output
 
Am I missing something ?

    I have tried this before and as per Microsoft documentation too, image controls are not supported in tables for the word online connector (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/wordonlinebusiness/#known-issues-and-limitations)
     
     
    Hope this Helps!

    Thanks for the response. I sort of suspected that, but could not find anything to confirm it.
    I have now looked at Encodian, and it will be a bit of a price/benefit equation for the customer.
