  • 1.  Include images in long description

    Hello,

    I am working on uploading data into Maximo using the MxLoader and I need to include images as part of the long description of objects. 

    I was trying to include the base64 code of the image in the description but Excel has a cell character limit that make it impossible. Is there a solution for this? Or if not what is the least time consuming alternative to include images in the description. 

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Zeina,

    You may look at creating your XML file from MxLoader, exporting the XML to an editor, and adding your base64code to the XML file. Then use app import to load the XML. That is a frustrating Excel limitation.

    Thanks,
