Images in repeating rows in Word documents

I'm building a flow that populates a word document template. I can get repeating rows to work, and I can get image controls to work, but they don't seem to work together. If I want an image control inside of a repeating table, I don't see the image control listed as one of the fields in the repeating section from word.

Is it possible to do images in repeating rows?

The example is a table of records and each record has an image, and I want to show the image for each row

I have just tried this out, I've been thinking about doing this myself recently. I could not make it work. I inserted the base64 of the image into the repeating row, but it just does not seem to get inserted into the content control.

I did find an alternative (though not what you are asking for). You can build a HTML table with the images using the method described on this page:

So I built a HTML Table from this SharePoint list:
Into this HTML Table:
Using an apply to each loop to build each row of the table. So although it cannot be done with Word, this might work as an alternative.

Is there any way to see the flow for this... I am trying to do this but not sure how to get the URI and build the flow.

Did you ever have any luck inserting an image into the repeating section of a table in a ms word template?
