Hi, How do i embed a users profile photo in an email on flow?

if i just enter the 'Get User Photo" i just get the box with an X in it (i am using a profile which has a photo)

I have tried to google this but it just seems to come up with solutions for PowerApps and not Flow.

Thank you,

Helen.

Hi @ Helen_BB,

I have made a test on my side, on my test, the pictures also couldn’t be displayed and are shown as red X in Outlook as you.

To embed a user’s profile photo in an email is not supported in Microsoft Flow currently, If you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

Hi!
I just tried it and it worked:

In the email body insert this piece of HTML code:

<img src="data&colon;image/jpeg;base64,{function}">

Where {function} is this expression:

base64(outputs('photo')?['body'])

And photo is the name of the step where you get the user profile photo.
