Using Binary Image File in Pega Constellation
Hi,
Currently, we are working on Pega constellation. The Image components that are in pega constellation documentation are using image source as URL's. But, in real time we will refer the Binary file which we created in Pega. How can we refer that file URL's. So, Is there any way we can build the component which takes the binary file as input and render the Image.
Thanks,
Nagarjuna.

Hi,
In Constellation we do not have image control as we do sections based UI. So, we have Img component which we published. But we can only refer image sources from browser. But I need to refer the binary file that we created.
Is there any OOTB in pega using which we can render image in constellation UI.
Thanks,
Nagarjuna.

@NagarjunaReddySangana In Constellation UI, you can use the Image component to display images. However, to refer to a binary file that you created, you would need to convert the binary file into a format that can be used as a source for the Image component. This could be a URL or a data URL. Pega Platform does not provide an out-of-the-box feature to directly render a binary file as an image in Constellation UI. You may need to implement a custom solution to convert the binary file into a suitable format for the Image component.

@NagarjunaReddySanganaI am assuming you want to display images that are preserved locally. Displaying images can be achieved by:
1. Creating Data-Content-Image instance.
2. Using JSP tags to get image URL contentURL JavaServer Page tag (pega.com) - in order to get image URL (later on after figuring out how URL is looks like you can create it dynamically e.g. in DT).
3. Use this url in URL control (set display as image) - View in which you plan to display it has to be type of DETAILS (it has to be read only)

@DharanidharanProperty value (not alt text in control) should be set to the URL. You need to use absolute path, not relative.

Binary Image files are not supported in Constellation. It's recommended to use Image URLs to display the image on the Views.
Yes, you can bundle the images in your assets folder and display the image through a custom DX component <img src>.
Please follow the link to create a custom DX component.

You can use binary files as below in pega constellation for image display.
Example: you need to pass binary file name as in below formate.
