How to use image in Adaptive Card w/o direct URL to the image










0














I would like to use user's profile image from MS graph in adaptive card. I have determined the API call I need to make is as follows



https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/docs/api-reference/beta/api/profilephoto_get



In this case I would be getting image as a binary data for a profile photo, that needs to converted into a base-64 string.



But, based on adaptive cards schema document looks like we should use URL property where value should be direct URL to the image



'url string Yes The URL to the image'



How should I approach this ? If there any way to use an IMAGE in Adaptive Card w/o direct URL to the image ??

          You can use a data URI to encode the bytes directly into the payload. Something like this sample:



          var photo = await client.Me.Photos[size].Content.Request().GetAsync();

          var photoStream = new MemoryStream();
          photo.CopyTo(photoStream);

          var photoBytes = photoStream.ToArray();

          return string.Format("data:image/png;base64,0",
          Convert.ToBase64String(photoBytes));

          • I think my Question was misunderstood. How to use image in Adaptive Card w/o direct URL to the image ?? I am not trying to find how to parse image bytes. My question is more on Adaptive Card current capabilities.

          • If I've misunderstood then I still misunderstand. I thought you were asking how to embed the image into the card payload. That sample I linked does this. It gets the profile photo from Graph, encodes the binary as base 64, then adds it as a Data URI to the adaptive card.

          • I think we both are on same page :) I am using nodejs with following code. Where body is actual response from MS graph. Here is the code. Looks code var buffer = require('buffer') var buf = Buffer.from(body); var base64String = buf.toString('base64') "url": "data:image/png;base64,.concat(base64String) code Looks like base64 conversation isn't correct. Card is not able to render am image. I uploade an image here :-dailycoding.com/Utils/Converter/ImageToBase64.aspx to test. I copied base64 string in URI formate in my card & it worked.
