Hi @SailorGirl,

 

I think here you mean to embed Image into Email Body?

We could take use of the following way to "Embed" the image data into Email Body:

Using the <img> Label in HTML, alos please make sure you have the Is HTML set to Yes in the Send an Email Action:

 

<img src="data&colon;image/png;base64, iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAUA
AAAFCAYAAACNbyblAAAAHElEQVQI12P4//8/w38GIAXDIBKE0DHxgljNBAAO
    9TXL0Y4OHwAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==" alt="Red dot" />

Or you may try the URL:

<img src="https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTf8peeAQ8Jbw4lowjdYM9OYVJFJr8EwgGNTsJ6BtbqPdNHWz2m" 
alt="Testing" width="500" height="100">

Reference:

The testing result:

For the image from OneDrive, make sure the image is shared to everyone, then copy and paste the image URL with the double quotes of 

scr="URL here "

Michael

Thanks,

@Sru@SailorGirl@v-micsh-msft

Any help on this, i am also getting same output as above.

hi, @abd3127 

 

I followeed abovementioned instructions and solved my problem. The final decision looks like: Capture.PNG

Hi, some tried with a bigger image (like 50KB), i tried it, in the flow the 64basecode it's showing fine in the Body of the email:

CapturaFlujoIncorrecto.PNG

But in the Inbox (where the email arrived) the image it's not shown, and inspecting the code of the email the 64basecode and the src attirbutte were removed:

 

CapturaCorreoIncorrecto.PNG

 

Thanks in advance.

@Jeshagio Yes i also got the same problem while opening the mail in Outlook Desktop App.

hi @abd3127,

 

I saved the images outside Sharepoint and used the link in Email Body and it works fine.

 

Thanks,

Sru

Hi everyone...so just to be completely clear on this...we're saying that you CANNOT embed an image into a Microsoft Flow Outlook E-mail message if the image you're trying to embed is hosted on Microsoft SharePoint / OneDrive / SiteAssets ?

 

Literally we are saying that you need to host your images somewhere OTHER than...you know...Microsoft sister environments that presumably are intended to work together? I just don't want it lost how nutty this is if this is where we are...

Hello, I have HTML set to true in the "Send and email notification" "Mail" trigger of my flow. This is not the Outlook action it is the Mail action (sends emails as microsoft@powerapps.com). I just wanted @v-micsh-msft to know that embedded images do not work with this connection type. Do you have a solution for this? or is it not possible?

 

Thanks

Hi @abd3127

 

Do you mind post your working html code here?

 

Where did you save the image? I referenced an internet image, still not working. Do they need to be on your local drive?

 

Cheers

 

 

Hello @Robin_NZ

 

I have used below HTML with the open source image url which works fine for me

 

<div style="position: absolute;left: 46%;top: 65px;" >
           <img src="https://static2.sharepointonline.com/files/fabric/assets/brand-icons/product/png/outlook_96x1.png"  height="75" width="75"/>
        </div>

Thanks

So I am looking to use a dynamic image URL, Html that'd allow me to embed the user's profile image whom uploaded the file/s into the notifcation email. As the dynamic content button seems only to allow for a link "Save as" currently. Is this possible?

I've spent at least 5 hours today trying to figure this out. Is it still not possible to get a link via sharepoint/onedrive that will work for displaying pictures in the body of an email? Is there some other service someone can recommend where hopefully the link to each image will be the same except the filename? I've built an inventory app for my company in powerapps, and would really like to add this to the email and not as an attachment.

I was able to embed picture by replacing the src=" with src="https:\\mysharepointsite.sharepoint.som\sites\mysite in the body of the email.

 

This allows the embedded images to be seen in Outlook web email but it fails to show in Outlook client application. I am still looking for a solution to this. Our network admin says that because of multifactor authentication Outlook cannot verify the permissions for the source, whereas browsers can do so. Outlook has its "own browser" according to him.

@Anonymous are you running on a windows machine?

 

I was having similar issues where embedded images were showing in the web version of outlook but not the desktop client. Outlook ties its permissions to the Edge microsoft browser, which I had never used before. After logging in to my company's sharepoint site on Edge (essentially showing outlook that it had permission to link to the sharepoint images embedded in the email body) the embedded images started showing in my Outlook desktop client.

 

Worked for me, it could also work for you! Unfortunately, this solution is an individual one, and I don't have a company wide or large scale fix.

Hi @Anonymous, Your solution didnt work for me. I tried on my test machine (all my machines run on Windows 10). I logged in Edge to our company's SharePoint Online Site, but Outlook client is still behaving the same way. Did you change any other settings? Is your sharepoint site a trusted site?

September User Group Success Story: Reading Dynamics 365 & Power Platform User Group

The Reading Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Group is a community-driven initiative that started in September 2022. It has quickly earned recognition for its enthusiastic leadership and resilience in the face of challenges. With a focus on promoting learning and networking among professionals in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform ecosystem, the group has grown steadily and gained a reputation for its commitment to its members!   The group, which had its inaugural event in January 2023 at the Microsoft UK Headquarters in Reading, has since organized three successful gatherings, including a recent social lunch. They maintain a regular schedule of four events per year, each attended by an average of 20-25 enthusiastic participants who enjoy engaging talks and, of course, pizza.   The Reading User Group's presence is primarily spread through LinkedIn and Meetup, with the support of the wider community. This thriving community is managed by a dedicated team consisting of Fraser Dear, Tim Leung, and Andrew Bibby, who serves as the main point of contact for the UK Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Groups.   Andrew Bibby, an active figure in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform community, nominated this group due to his admiration for the Reading UK User Group's efforts. He emphasized their remarkable enthusiasm and success in running the group, noting that they navigated challenges such as finding venues with resilience and smiles on their faces. Despite being a relatively new group with 20-30 members, they have managed to achieve high attendance at their meetings.   The group's journey began when Fraser Dear moved to the Reading area and realized the absence of a user group catering to professionals in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform space. He reached out to Andrew, who provided valuable guidance and support, allowing the Reading User Group to officially join the UK Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Groups community.   One of the group's notable achievements was overcoming the challenge of finding a suitable venue. Initially, their "home" was the Microsoft UK HQ in Reading. However, due to office closures, they had to seek a new location with limited time. Fortunately, a connection with Stephanie Stacey from Microsoft led them to Reading College and its Institute of Technology. The college generously offered them event space and support, forging a mutually beneficial partnership where the group promotes the Institute and encourages its members to support the next generation of IT professionals.   With the dedication of its leadership team, the Reading Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Group is poised to continue growing and thriving! Their story exemplifies the power of community-driven initiatives and the positive impact they can have on professional development and networking in the tech industry. As they move forward with their upcoming events and collaborations with Reading College, the group is likely to remain a valuable resource for professionals in the Reading area and beyond.

September featured user group leader

 Ayonija Shatakshi, a seasoned senior consultant at Improving, Ohio, is a passionate advocate for M365, SharePoint, Power Platform, and Azure, recognizing how they synergize to deliver top-notch solutions. Recently, we asked Ayonija to share her journey as a user group leader, shedding light on her motivations and the benefits she's reaped from her community involvement.      Ayonija embarked on her role as a user group leader in December 2022, driven by a desire to explore how the community leveraged various Power Platform components. When she couldn't find a suitable local group, she decided to create one herself!    Speaking about the impact of the community on her professional and personal growth, Ayonija says, "It's fascinating to witness how everyone navigates the world of Power Platform, dealing with license constraints and keeping up with new features. There's so much to learn from their experiences.:        Her favorite aspect of being a user group leader is the opportunity to network and engage in face-to-face discussions with fellow enthusiasts, fostering deeper connections within the community. Offering advice to budding user group leaders, Ayonija emphasized the importance of communication and consistency, two pillars that sustain any successful community initiative.      When asked why she encourages others to become user group leaders, Ayonija said, "Being part of a user group is one of the best ways to connect with experienced professionals in the same field and glean knowledge from them. If there isn't a local group, consider starting one; you'll soon find like-minded individuals."      Her highlight from the past year as a user group leader was witnessing consistent growth within the group, a testament to the thriving community she has nurtured. Advocating for user group participation, Ayonija stated, "It's the fastest route to learning from the community, gaining insights, and staying updated on industry trends."   Check out her group: Cleveland Power Platform User Group
