Hi Shame, i want to convert file attachments into base64 and then wana send base64 text to my API
Thank you! I was not able to add my image with Data URI, once the stage I needed to start the variable was not the correct one and I could not change it. Now it worked perfectly. Thanks again!
Can you please tell me how to download a binary data in power apps? I got this binary from amazon S3
Hi Shane, thank you for all you videos, they really have helped me get my apps working well. Just a note, can i do this automatically without going to the base64-image website,
thanks in advance.
Hi Shane. Your videos are super awesome! Thank you!!! I have been looking for something all over the web, and your video is the closest I have found… I am needing to dynamically create thumbnails from images in a datasource to embed into html (for email and PDF purposes). Your video describes images that are known in advance, i.e. company logo, whereas I am wanting to include images in the invoice detail section that will be different each time. In addition to creating Base64 dynamically, I need these to be downsized to a predefined size, i.e. 100×100 px. Might this be an upcoming video? Pretty sure others would benefit from this as well. 🙂
Hi Shane!
I tried something like You did, but my PDF file does not show the images.
I put it in a table, to a better design, at the browser the file works well, but at the PDF file some formats and images does not work/appear.
Cold You help me?
Hi Shane, Thanks for your videos and efforts for educating us,
"What formula should I use if I want to attach signature and image"
Your prior reply on this will help me a lotttttt
Could u help me understand how to get SharePoint list columns in Rich text format into my PDF that I'm generating from Flow
Misleading title. Power Apps is not converting image to base64. Web tool is executing the conversion then you're using the output in Power Apps.
Sent E-Mail to someone else but the picture doesn't show.
Is there a way?
Great Video! Shane. I have problem to convert html file into PDF when images are too big sized. Only 2M HTML file could be converted to PDF. Do you have any solution?
Thanks Shane for all videos you made. They are very helpful to me. Is it possible if I want a user can only use the Power app on a specific devices.

Is it possible convert URL's image to base64 with Power Automate? How I can do that?
outstanding video, great sense of humor! I have customized the power app Meeting Capture and am having trouble customizing the email output. I can change what is says by using onvisable to see the code but i want to insert a header that is an image, same size as the pink header that is defaulted. I have the image, ran it through the base64 as you showed here but i am not sure how to get that into the code when looking at the welcome screen onvisible html. Any ideas would be so appreciated, i so want to be successful at this power app.
Hi Shane,
Could you show us how to add Base64 to compose connector from flows? I did create a flow using PARSE connector where a put a table in html in order to create a file but I don't know how to add image inside of table…
Hi Shane,
can you do a video on how to add a picture into the background of a pdf that I create out of PowerApps? Should be like a watermark behind a table
That would be awesome!
Hi Shane,
Email nd image control part is working for me, but for PDF logo part is not visible, is there is any reason for it ? If we add logo inside the control 'html text ' then also it is not working
Thank you very much for this video, Shane! It was very educational for me and this has gotten me quite interested in Power Apps! 🙂
Hi Shane! I have one question, how do I actually create a pdf for a SharePoint list item that includes its attachment image inside the pdf? Because I tried to create but unsuccessful only for the image into pdf step. Other column have no problem. Hope you have solution for this. I use power automate for this activity. Thanks!
Thanks mate. Saved me!!!
Isn't there any way to reduce the size of an image on runtime?
Easy and simple. Thanks !! Does anyone knows how to align the images in a PDF?
Thanks for the video, Shane. Is there a way to convert 64base image in png (when taken a Photo from camera) to base64 jpg inside powerapps before uploading, it would be 10x faster due to jpg compression? Power apps only takes photos in base64 png
Hi Shane! Im a huge fan of your videos. Now im dealing with an issue: I need to allow user of an app to inser multiple images in rich text editor, after that i will put all the user writes within the app to a Word Document. The issue im having trouble is allowing user to inser image within a paragraph of their response. Can you help me with this?
hi, thanks for the video. Is there any way to open this image on browser? Launch function is not working.
I've watched many Shane's exceptionally helpful videos, and what I really want to hear is he says " He~~~re's the intro! "
Great Video As usual ,
is there a way you can combine multiple jpg files into 1 PDF ???
This is really useful, Shane, and thanks for pointing me to it from another of your videos. I am embedding the Base64 code into the HTML for an email. The output renders fine in Outlook and now also in both Yahoo and Roundcube email clients, thanks to the Base64. But still not in Gmail. Any ideas? Also, do you have Patreon or similar?
Very helpful tutorial, thank you. How I can automatically convert all images from the galley? so i can put them all in a .pdf file and send them by email?
@Shane : Please confirm.If we can use the power flows and Html to create multiple page PDF of all my SCREENs?
Thank you. Someone made this super complicated for no reason and it was this simple
Hi Shane – great video (as always) but I have a small snag that I just can't find a solution for at the moment. I've tried using the base64 code directly in the htmltext body and storing it in a variable but I can't get the image to display in a preview htmltext control on the screen. Is this the same kind of issue as trying to use tables with borders in an htmltext control, do you think?
It does come through in the email but as I'm trying to use it as an email preview before sending it's not quite as useful as I thought.
Bizarrely, if I link to images stored in a shared drive they do appear in the preview control (?)
I have saved video links in Sharepoint list , connecting sharepoint to power apps, i wanted to play the videos in Power apps, i'm able to play it in power app browser but not in mobile device it is showing black screen
SOOOOOOOOOOOO cool video this one 🙂
Thanks Shame, this is great for fixed images, however what if the image would be a dynamic one – based on a person field, could I for example, create a table in the app somewhere with all thee base 64 for each potentially dynamic image (There will be a finite number based on approved people) and then do a lookup adding in the base 64 into a label, and then refer to the label in the HTML text field?
Hi Shane, Great Video. Have a question on base64 encoding for an external image. Eg: When i upload an image to image control and use Set( ImageJson,JSON( Image6.Image,JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData ) ). It converts to base64 and it works perfect. In my scenario i have get external image from an url(http://barcodes4.me/barcode/c128b/12223335555555.png) and convert this to base64 which seems not working when i use JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData. It just returns complete url instead of base64. Any thoughts on how to address this.
