Rendering images inline via text module (incident report generation)

Hello, I have a question about how to achieve something in Zammad that I thought should be quite straightforward to implement … but I could be wrong!

Information:

  • Used Zammad version: 6.0.0-1689777408.47b4983d.jammy
  • Used Zammad installation type: package
  • Operating system: Ubuntu 22.04
  • Browser + version: Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu / 115.0.2 (64-bit)

Expected behavior:

  • I want to automatically generate an incident report at the end of a troubleshooting procedure implemented through Zammad (just before closing the ticket).

  • This incident report should include the results of the step-by-step troubleshooting process that the agent follows.

  • If possible, I would like to generate this incident report by using a text module, which would reference the results of each troubleshooting step, stored as objects.

  • However, I cannot find a way to embed or display images inline in the text module in any way. I thought I could store an image in an object, but it doesn’t seem to be possible.

Actual behavior:

  • The closest object type I could find to an image object type was Text / URL, but this does not result in an image being displayed inline in the ticket via the text module.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  • Can create a URL object thus: Objects > New Attribute > Format: Text Field, Type: Url
  • Instead want to create an image object like this: Objects > New Attribute > Format: Image

Request:

  • Does anyone have any ideas as to how to solve this problem?

Thank you!

If there is a way, I think it would be in workflows. I have not used them yet, so I’m not much help.

We display images in text modules by writing the text in a online html editor. Insert the image there (base64 encoded or via url to our cdn) and the copy paste the formated html (not the code) to the text module.
