Save Screenshot As Varible

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Greetings,

 

I am trying to save a screenshot of a website, then insert that screenshot into an HTML email.

The create screenshot has 2 options, save as file, or save into clipboard.

How can I save that screenshot as a variable so I can insert it in the body of the message, or eventually into a approval flow once that is supported.

 

Regards

    Hello @Anonymous 

     

    If you want the screenshot to be part of the email body, then you would need to:

    1. Upload the image on the web
    2. Send the email in HTML format
    3. Add the tag <img src="My_Image.jpg"> in your email.

     

    Otherwise, should you want to send the image as an attachment, please note that all the below Actions accept attachments as input:

    • Send Email
    • Send Exchange email message
    • Send email through Outlook

     

    I hope the above helps!
