Issue: moving documents from Dynamics 365 to Sharepoint.
I have the new URL. I've cleared the documentblob column and replaced the note text with the URL, however, the timeline control doesn't display the HTML url until you click on it.
Users don't want to scroll through 20 - 40 timeline entries for attachments, it's easier to see the attachment as a link.
So... is there somehow, someway, to take a URL, turn it into some kind of binary file that's clickable and redirectable?

I have implemented a menu of several tabs. When opening one of the tabs, several images are loaded from an external resource in jpg format.
If I open another tab, then other images are downloaded (this is expected). But when I go back to the previous tab, NextJS downloads the old images again.
How can I get rid of unnecessary downloads?
p.s. I want to clarify that depending on the tab, different components are drawn, removing others (perhaps this is important)
next js just compress your image and improve performance, you must not expect to not load the image when you will request to server again if you want to not download the image again the solution I think maybe can work: you must use your cash with react query when you want to request again when client change tab instead of axis or fetch,
react query will see if the image in the server is changed to load it again or not
Before trying to say this was answered elsewhere or is a duplicate - PLEASE fully read. All other solutions are cache-busters forcing image reload EVERYTIME. I only want to force image reload on condition of new image size - but keeping same image name.
On my server I am naming images ceLogo_C1001.png - the 1001 is the customer ID, the image is the company logo. If the client updates their image on the server side, the image is still named ceLogo_C1001.png.
<img ng-src='myserver.com/clients/images/ceLogo_C1001.png'>
However, in the app, the image isn't updating and is showing the old ceLogo_C1001.png - not the new one. I believe this is because the old image and the new image have the same name. Is there anyway to get the app to force reload the image if it recognizes the image size is different from the last one - even though the images still have the same name? I am trying to force a certain uniformity in naming...without having to add dates or incremental numbers (IE: ceLogo_C1001_1.png) to force a name change - which would then force an image reload.
Image cache refresh based on image size change is not possible. The purpose of cache is to store items by name so the next time the browser see's a request for that named resource it doesn't reload that specific item from the remote server - it pulls it from cache.
Therefore, if the url is pulling an image by the same name, one that was already stored in cache, it WON'T even request that image from the remote server. And if its not requesting the same named image again, there is no way for the browser to know the image on the server has a new size.
The only way to do cache busting (force reload an image that is already in cache) is to append something like ?ver=1 to the end of the URL. When ever the image is updated then increment the version number
image.png becomes image.png?ver=1 // this url gets cached In two
months a new image is uploaded, but the name stays the same, increment
the counter to: image.png?ver=2 this will force a reload and now
maybe this image stays the same, and in cache, for the next 3 month.
I am answering my own question and leaving this here in case anyone else ever tries going down the same path I just did.
I am connecting Active Directory to a platform my company uses. In order to ensure that user's have a profile picture, I will add the URL of the photo to an attribute and connect it that way. However, the URL for the image must take me directly to the image. So far, I have been able to store images on different options but for each one, when I select the URL, it takes me to the webpage that disples other items than just the image (e.g. - https://ibb.co/J2cFfsx ). How can I store photos so that the URL takes me directly to JUST the image ONLY?
right click on the image and click view image. once you have done this you should get something that looks like below. In the URL there should be a new link, if you use that one it should always take you to the image aslong as it exits.
Equally you can right click on the image and select "copy image location" and that will give you the new link. I personally perfer the other method as it gives a proper preview of the image at its full size.
new image view
To link your image to the document go and search for image on google. right click on image -> Create QR code for this image after showing the QR code. Beneath QR code there is a link copy that and paste it in your document where you want. Now just to be sure click on the link and it will show the image only. Try it!!
We have a Winforms application which supports dragging and dropping chunks of HTML into Outlook (HTML) mail messages.
Chunks of text are fine.
But how do we proceed with images? Let's assume we don't want to host the images online but instead we want to send them with the email message. Assume also that we do want to see the image inline, not as an attachment (where the recipient's email client supports that, of course).
If you look at the HTML source of an Outlook message there are "cid" tags for images (which point to the image as an attachment I guess), but how do we go about generating a cid/contentid?
If a manual step in the process is an option, you can do it like this:
create the HTML automatically or manually as a saved HTML file, with <img> tags that link to locally-saved image files
attach the HTML to an Outlook email using the 'Insert as text' option tucked away under the down-arrow on the "Insert" button when selecting the HTML file as an attachment.
This populates the HTML email with the HTML from the file and embeds all images. I believe this tool uses Base64 encoding to embed the images as described in Sam's email.
Depending on the workflow, this method might be easier than converting images to Base64 yourself.
Note that this method only works in Outlook for Windows, not Outlook for Mac.
You can embed images in a html email using a base64 encoder. Its quite complicated but you basically encode the image as a text string in the email which is then interpreted.
This does not work in all email clients though.
Take a look at this and see if its what your looking for:

EDIT
The updated campaign monitor post on the clients which work with base64 images.
For the last part of your question, "generating a cid/contentid" I know the only way is useing outlook itself (or Word as a text editor of Outlook) to get that.
I had faced this problem when I needed to insert our company logo beside my signature text on the email.
So, open Microsoft Outlook (office 2016 im ny case) go to File > Options > Mail > Compose Messages > Signatures button
or inside the Outlook New Message windows, go Insert > Picture
If you are using html to make your whole email, you can search google for the same image, and put this in there:
<img src="http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logos/images_logo_lg.gif" alt="picture1" />
You can also, use photobucket to host images (if you have to). Basically, you HAVE to have a source for the image.
I have a small web site where i maintain users data. I maintain the users data in table and store there images like /images/users/user_id.jpeg on the server.
I am using the ReportViewer control in the asp.net page to show the reports from SSRS in the web application.
Now user want reports where they can see the users image in the report so that they can export it as pdf and get it printed.
In report i tried html image tag with full and relative url with option to render HTML however its not working. Also i tried the image control in the toolbox with external url and that too appears to be now working.
Can someone please help me get around this problem or guide me to some helpful links.
Thanks all,
It will be a lot easier to set up the report so that your users can see the image, if you can see the image in preview in Report Designer.
Make sure you have a working URL that takes you to one of your images. Test it, by pasting the URL into the address bar of your browser and ensure that the image is displayed in the browser.
Delete the existing image from your report. Insert a new image into the report object (normally a list or table) you are using to display your table. (This should be where the old image was.)
Specify Web as the image source, and enter your working URL as the URL of the image.
Preview the report in the report designer. You should be able to see the image (with the hardcoded URL) displayed correctly in the report.
Assuming all images are stored in the same directory on your server, switch to the layout tab of your report designer and click on the image object. In the Properties window, the value attribute should be the harcoded URL.
Click on the <Expression...> option from the dropdown menu for the Value attribute. Edit the expression so that it says ="your URL, without the filename" & Fields!your image filename data field name.Value
Preview the report in the report designer. You should be able to see the appropriate image for your data displayed correctly in the report.
If everything has gone correctly up to this point, deploy the report and try viewing it in the Report Manager. You should be able to see the appropriate image for your data displayed correctly in the report.
At this point, your users should now be able to see the report images.
I tried everything!!! It wasn't working in BIDS, Web Browser nor a Winform Report Viewer control.
I ended up hard-coding the image and it still didn't work:
="http://MyServer/Reports_SQL2008/Pages/Resource.aspx?ItemPath=%2fProjectReporting%2fBRAND_Logo.png&RetrieveResource=True"
I am pretty sure the problem was something to do with Active Directory Group Policy propagation. I suggest to leave it overnight if you have the same problem and have tried everything you can think of:
Setup Unattended Execution Account in SSRS Config with a service account who's password wont expire:
Permissions (both on image and also at Site Settings):
Can navigate to the image successfully, but it still doesn't show in the report.
Have the SSRS Image Properties set correctly, with the equal sign and url enclosed in double quotes, ie: ="url"
Even clear your browsers cache and tried different browsers, etc, etc
Anyway next morning I tried and the hardcoded path works and now this dynamic URL works too:
http://MyServer/Reports_SQL2008/Pages/Resource.aspx?ItemPath=%2fProjectReporting%2f" & First(Fields!Brand.Value, "ClientAndBrandByAccount") & "_Logo.png&RetrieveResource=True"
The XML in the RDL file is HTML encoded and looks like this:
<Image Name="Logo">
<Source>External</Source>
<Value>="http://MyServer/Reports_SQL2008/Pages/Resource.aspx?ItemPath=%2fProjectReporting%2f" & First(Fields!Brand.Value, "ClientAndBrandByAccount") & "_Logo.png&RetrieveResource=True"</Value>
I tried to make the Server URL dynamic as Alex Z shows, though I had to use this Replace code:
=Replace(Globals!ReportServerUrl,"/ReportServer_","/Reports_") & "/Pages/Resource.aspx?ItemPath=%2fProjectReporting%2f" & First(Fields!Brand.Value, "ClientAndBrandByAccount") & "_Logo.png&RetrieveResource=True"
Create a relative url using the expression and global variable Globals!ReportServerUrl
= Globals!ReportServerUrl + "your path to image"
