Inserting images in Formstack Documents via Integromat

To create merged documents with images (e.g. signatures) via Integromat, you need to know the URL to the image or the base64 representation of the image (i.e. data:image/png;base64,<BASE 64 HERE>) so that Integromat can pass this information to WebMerge and the image can be embedded. Detailed information on how to build documents and embed images in WebMerge can be found under the following links:
