I've spent around 6 hours looking for an answer, and I think I'm so close - I'm trying make automated posts to a specific Yammer group every Friday. The post will contain a specialized description, as well as an image.
So far, I have a 3-step flow:
Everything works smoothly, except the email attachment that is sent is in a .txt format, rather than .jpeg as it was originally uploaded. As a result, the Yammer post doesn't have an image preview, which I really need.
Why does the uploaded jpeg get attached as a .txt? Is there an elegant workaround?
Hi @Anonymous
If you want to post a message to Yammer with Images,
I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs in Microsoft Flow currently.
Posting a message to Yammer with Images is not supported in microsoft flow currently,
If you would like this feature to be added in Microsoft Flow, please submit an idea to Flow Ideas Forum:

Please try my method or at least read carefully before saying it can't be done - I've already gotten posts to be automated, but the attached images did not have a preview because they were in .txt form.
Hello, @Anonymous!
Would you mind replying to this thread with instructions on how to do it and then click "Accept as Solution" so that other users may easily identify this information!
Thanks again for posting!

None of these are acceptable solutions.
Hey! i feel your struggle!

but i havent done it as part of a flow trigger.

Hello! I'm guessing you don't need this anymore.
But for anybody looking for an answer, I managed to do this by sending it via mail like you said. To let yammer know it is a png, you must specify the file extension on the "Attachments Name" field of send via Outlook like so:
Hey Grivollier
can you share the flow you've created so i can try it out, that will help me a lot.
Thanks
Is it possible to resize the image attachment , or define the dimensions of the attachment before posting ? And also how would you @mention someone in the email to be posted to Yammer(Viva Engage) any clues ?
Hi guys...
I have the same problem. I need send dayly a happy birthday in a post on Yammer. I have a list on sharepoint with name, birthday dates and a photo that person wold like to send on your post. But I can't add this photo in my flow, only text. Did anyone manage to rosolve this?
Any solution by now?
I need images (possible via mail) and Tags (possible via flow) ...
How can I schedule posts with images in Yammer/Viva Engage using Power Automate Flow or another solution? I have been able to schedule posts in Yammer with only text, but I need to schedule posts with both text and images.
Can anyone suggest how I can achieve this?
Hi,

Thanks.
PS : Sorry for my english, i'm french 😉
