Hello,
I have a flow that gets a link from sharepoint to a image and them composes it to be able to embed it to the email.
 
The outlook recipients receive the email with no problems, but the gmail doesn't show the image,
 
anyone has a solution for this ?

    The Gmail people do not see the image because the SharePoint site is not a public website, so they don't have access to the image. You need to embed the image into the body of the HTML of the e-mail. The easiest way to do this is:
    • Create a separate workflow just to get the image from your SharePoint site. It can be a manually triggered flow.
      • Then use a Get file content action to get the file.
      • Follow it with a compose action and put the body of the Get file action into it.
      • Run the flow and look at the successful run.
    • Then go back to your original flow and open the e-mail in HTML view.
      • Then add the code below to the message where you want the image to appear.
      • Update png with the image type shown in the compose action, and replace imagecontent with the content from the compose action.
      • Update the alt, width and height accordingly.
      • Note: when you update the imagecontent, be sure you do not add in extra quote marks. There should only be a quote after src= and before >
     
    <p>
    <img src="data:image/png;base64,imagecontent" alt="workflow" width="281" height="28">
    </p>
