Hi @Machinimush, I’m not sure about binary specifically being something you could with Thunkable without using some other API to convert the image. But we have had many users encode images using Base64, which is a way of encoding binary data. Check this post out below and let us know if this helps!

> Hello, Do you know when “base64 encoding" will be available in thunkable drag and drop? Thank in advance Best regard
