Hi @praveen_uel ,

 

Unfortunately you can't. Excel doesn't store images in a cell but uses literal screen coordinates and a back-end reference library to call the image.

I'm 95% sure you can use something like 7-zip to unzip the excel file - and then grab the images from the media subdirectory... no?

 

@praveen_uel  for the second part - you'll need to send the blob files into the image tool and then into a render.

 

Alteryx wasn't designed for this and I personally don't have the time to give you an end to end solution - but it could be done.
