Embed image in Send mail from an attachment

Olesen, Brian Peter DK - LRI 26

Im recieving an email with a attachment which is a img(The same img is also in the body). I want to forward that img, but i can't find a way to add that img to the body of "Send mail(V2)".

More specific it's the mail from Power BI subscription, the default mail isn't pretty and would like to add custom text and so on to the mail sent out to consumers.

@Olesen, Brian Peter DK - LRI Thanks for reaching out. As per your requirement you need to leverage the Compose action or string variable and define/build your HTML content on the compose or string variable as below. Further you need to leverage base6 function to convert your content rather than passing the content directly in your compose action as below.
I have tested the workflow and I see the image in the body rather than attachment on my send email. You can leverage the other HTML tags to format your email as per your requirement. Please make sure you are formatting the text before and not in your Body of your Send Email action.

Feel free to get back to me if you need any assistance.

Hi @Olesen, Brian Peter DK - LRI ,

Thank you for asking this question on the Microsoft Q&A Platform.

I would suggest to try the below steps,

You can download the image to blob location from incoming mails.
Then get the content of that image from blob location.
Put the attachment content as a content. Please refer the below screenshot for reference,

Thanks for your answer, but what i was looking for was embedding the image into the body of the mail, and not as an attachment.

Hi @Kamlesh Kumar - Thanks for taking your time!

When i type "<img src="...." it doesn't register as a html. What i get as output is this: ]2

Is it because im not typing it right in the logic app?

Output looks fine.

As per my knowledge, some email clients don’t support images because they tend to lead towards both email deliverability and rending image issues.

You can refer the here,

One option, if your images are hosted off-site then you can pass the URL here and it'll work <img src="URL" /> or another option to add as an attachment like I shared the solution above.

The output isn't right.

From what i can tell, it doesn't seem like it is registering html. E.g. if i do <br> it just sends a mail with that as a string in the mail.

We are sending mails with images(that doesn't get blocked), we just have to do it manually. Which is why we're hoping to be able to automate it.
