{image}
Sample Usage
If you invested ${formtext: name=investment; default=10000; width=10} today and it grew at a rate of {formtext: name=rate; default=20; width=4}% a year, you would see the following increase:
{image: https://quickchart.io/chart?width=600&height=300&bkg=transparent&c=\{"type": "bar","data": \{"datasets": [\{"label": "Investment Size ($)", "data": [{=join([investment * (1 + rate/100)^(i-1) for (y, i) in seq(0, 11)], ",")}]\}], "labels": [{=join(seq({time:YYYY}, {time:YYYY} + 11), ",")}]\}\}}
{image: https://quickchart.io/chart?width=600&height=300&bkg=transparent&c=\{"type": "bar","data": \{"datasets": [\{"label": "Investment Size ($)", "data": [{=join([investment * (1 + rate/100)^(i-1) for (y, i) in seq(0, 11)], ",")}]\}], "labels": [{=join(seq({time:YYYY}, {time:YYYY} + 11), ",")}]\}\}}

The image command allows you to include URLs that resolve into images in your snippets.
Various services that exist that will create dynamic images based on a URL such as charts or maps. The example above uses QuickChart.io.
Dynamic Images vs Static Images
If you want to include a static image in the snippet, rather than using the image command you should import the image by clicking the picture icon in the styling toolbar.
The image command is primarily for dynamic images where the image URL may change.
Sharing snippets containing the image command
When sharing snippets with others, snippets containing the image command may only be shared with members of your Text Blaze Business organization.
