Hi!
 
For about three weeks now, embedded images have no longer been displayed in emails. The images are visible in Outlook.

The following error from the console:
https://xxx.crm4.dynamics.com/orgxxxxxx/Activities/Attachment/download.aspx?AttachmentType=1001&AttachmentId=fd1d8431-d907-f011-bae3-000d3ab0a781
Request Method:
GET
Status Code:
404 Not Found

Does anyone have an idea?

    Thank you for your detailed answer.
    It's not due to the permissions, because as admin i don't see any pictures either.
    Bur it could actually be related to the fact that we switched our mailboxes to exchange online a few weeks ago (server-side sync).
    Could this be the reason or do you have to adjust something in exchange online?

    Hi there! Good morning, evening, or afternoon - depending on where you are :) Hope you are well today!
     
    Based on the details you provided, including the 404 error, here are some potential causes and solutions:
    Possible Causes
    1. Attachment URL Expiry: Dynamics 365 uses temporary URLs for attachments, and these may expire after a certain period. If the embedded image relies on such a URL, it could result in a 404 error.
    2. Permission Issues: The user accessing the email might not have sufficient permissions to view the attachment.
    3. Server-Side Sync or Email Router Configuration: Misconfigurations in the synchronization setup could prevent embedded images from being handled correctly.
    4. Recent Updates or Changes: If Dynamics 365 was updated recently, it might have introduced changes affecting how embedded images are displayed.
    Recommended Solutions
    1. Check Attachment Settings: Verify that the attachment is still accessible in Dynamics 365. Navigate to the email activity and ensure the image file is listed under attachments.
    2. Review Permissions: Confirm that the user has the necessary permissions to view attachments in Dynamics 365.
    3. Reconfigure Server-Side Sync: If you're using Server-Side Synchronization, ensure it’s correctly set up to handle embedded images.
    4. Test in Different Browsers: Sometimes, browser settings or cache can interfere with image display. Clear the cache or test in another browser.
    hope this helps!
