Adding an Image into an Email

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

Hi All,

My Desktop flow takes a screenshot, I want my Cloud Flow to send that image in an email (ideally embedded), but I'm having trouble,

Things I have tried;

Setting the base64 string of the image as a variable and passing that from desktop to cloud, and setting it as the file content for an email attachment (the image doesn't open)

The Desktop Flow uploading the image to Sharepoint, then the cloud flow Gets the File Content and adds as an attachment (Image doesn't open)

I also don't seem to be able to embed the image in the email Body anymore since the last update, Is there a new way of doing it? my HTML is Read-Only.

 

Any help or advice would be appreciated, Thanks

    @GarySpag I suggest that when you are editing the flow you revert to the classic designer from the 3 dots at the top right of the Power Automate screen.

     

    We always embed our company logo in the emails that a flow sends:
    5-EmailTicketClosed-full.png

     

    The image is stored in SharePoint and to get the file content use the get file content using path action. Then in the send an email action add the expression dataUri(body('Get_file_content_using_path')) inside the html tags:
