Logic Apps - embed base64 inside mail body

Question

I want to display the following image Base64 inside the logic Apps email body.

{
"image": [
 "data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgA..."
 "data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgA..."
 "data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgA..."
 "data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgA..."
]
}

Inside the setVariable 2 - I'm adding all the details

For the image I'm using items('For_each'), but i get only image, when i submit the form.

Let me know if any one has idea to display multiple images in the email.

<h1 style="text-alig:center">Demo</h1>

<strong><h3>Location</h3></strong>
<hr/>
<strong>Lat:</strong> @{triggerBody()?['latitude']}
<strong>Lon:</strong> @{triggerBody()?['longitude']}
<br />
<br />

<strong><h3>capture On:</h3></strong>
<hr/>
@{triggerBody()?['catpuredon']}
<br />
<br />

<strong><h3>my Car</h3></strong>
<hr/>
@{triggerBody()?['carphoto']}
<br />
<br />

<strong><h3>Car Photos:</h3></strong>
<hr />
<br />
<img src=@{items('For_each')} />

Added the New image after correction

You haven’t showed us how you’re putting that in the email body. You can’t just say all items, you’ll need to construct the html. — Skin, Feb 15 '23 at 11:02
I'd say you need to loop through each image in your FOR loop and append to a string variable, not just set a variable. If you think you're doing that, can you show us the contents of the `Set variable` step? — Skin, Feb 15 '23 at 11:29

Adding to what @Skin said, I have embedded each item inside <img> tag and appended it to a string variable which is then added in the mail body. Below is how my flow looks like.

As a sample I have taken same image 4 times and below are the results in my mail.

Thanks for your help, Swetha, It worked. In the "Initialize_variable_-_Images_Array" code block i was struggling to understand, whether you have shown an example of hardcoded images dataUrl, but somehow i tried to add the image Array from "when an HTTP request received" and now I'm getting multiple images in the email body. Once again thanks for quick help. — PCA, Feb 17 '23 at 08:11
