How to add an image to a message

To add an image to a message, click the Add Image control in the message formatting toolbar.

In the Add image modal, type or paste the URL for the image you'd like to embed in the message. Once added, a preview of the image will appear in the modal. Click Add Image to embed the image in the message.

NOTE: Currently, only externally hosted images can be added to a message.

e.g., If you have an GabrielSoft website, you can host your image in your site's File Manager. You will need to use the image's permalink (provided in your website's File Manager) as the Image URL in Connect.

The ability to upload an image directly into Connect is coming soon!

Resizing an image

Once the image is added to the message, click the image and use the squares on the corner of the image to drag the corner and proportionally resize the image.

Other image actions

Clicking on an image that has been added to a message will reveal the following actions:

Edit URL - This will open the Add image modal again and allow you to insert a different image using a different Image URL.
Edit Alt Text - Add text to describe the image (optional). Alt text will be shown if the image is not displayed or fails to load for a recipient. By default, the Alt Text for all added images is "Embedded Image."
Remove - Click this to delete the image from the message.
