Been trying to wrap my head around how to display record attachments (images) in the markdown output of the scripting app. I heard rumours that’s possible :slightly_smiling_face: but haven’t seen any code snippets that seemed to be working []!($URL) produces errors asking for a function called

Any hints?

Hi @Martin_Kranz ,

Here’s the syntax for rendering images with Markdown – you’ll want to put the exclamation before the square brackets, and then it should work!

Here’s an example for the scripting app:

let attachmentURL = record.getCellValue('Attachments')[0].url;
output.markdown(`![](${attachmentURL})`)

Hope this helps!

Sweet! Thanks Erin, helped a lot!

@Erin_OHern It’s working like charm, but is there any easy way to get to the thumbnail image ?

record.getCellValue('Attachments')[0].thumbnail.small.url

by any chance!?
