Is there a simple way to store images within the flow and use these images when required?

Hi @Smartview_Property

There’s no built in image store unfortunately.

Images that you receive in your flows will always be the URL of a hosted file for the messaging platform being used. You could store particular image links as attributes or save them to a Google Sheet.

Outside of that there’s always Images and Cards that you can add images to.

Thanks Daniel. This took a little thinking about.
Originally I was having to reference my business website where I stored hidden images - this was complicated to update.
Now I have a simple flow which uses Send Image for every image needed. This automatically creates a unique URL for each image. In the same flow I then Set an Attribute which has a value of the URL and repeat this for every image/URL. The great part is that the Send Image is never required in the flow and so can be put at the end of the flow or jumped over.
Job done!
Regards Andrew
