Get Chart Image + Send HTML Message with Base64 image flow does not seem to be working as expected...

Greetings!

I've been following the instructions in this Qlik Community document to get a very simple automation posting a chart image to a MSFT Teams' channel, but I am not getting much traction, so I decided to ask the experts.

This is the URL of the App

Sheet and Object IDs:

Config of the Get Chart Image block using the parameters above:

Configuration of Send HTML Message with Base64 Image:

What I am getting in the Channel:

I tried to decode the Base64 image and it seems to be incorrect. I've tried to fix it by adding and removing quotes before/after the Base64 contents, but it doesn't seem to solve the problem:

I also tried to send the image to my email address, and I get the base64 contents as shown above, but not the image.

@AfeefaTk, do you have any suggestions?

Please advise and tag me @diagonjope in your suggestions.

Cheers,

++José

@diagonjope

I cant seem to find on my side the get chart image in the Qlik cloud Services connector, am i missing something?

I do however see it under the reporting connector.

Hi @Shai_E ,

On my side, there is a Get Chart Image block (which I used and didn't work), as well as the one in the Reporting Connector - but this one seems to need a temporary bookmark. I managed to solve the problem with the block in the Reporting Connector.

Cheers,
