I am trying to send an email from my app with an image embedded in it. For this I am trying to get the path of image in the Resources/drawable in my app.

Following is the code to attach an image to mail through Linkedresource :

            AlternateView htmlView = AlternateView.CreateAlternateViewFromString(Body.ToString(), null, "text/html");

            LinkedResource LR_body = new LinkedResource("Here comes path of the image in Resources/drawable");

            LR_body.ContentId = "image.png";

            htmlView.LinkedResources.Add(LR_body );
            MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
            mail.AlternateViews.Add(htmlView);

I am not able to get the path of image in the Resources/drawable in my app. Please help me in resolving the issue. Thanks in advance.

Getting the same exception while adding the path to Linkedresource. – Shareef Jan 31 '17 at 09:52

You will have to get the resource as a stream, save to a temp file and the pass that new path to LinkedResource. – SushiHangover Jan 31 '17 at 09:54
