[Solved] Insert an image in Markdown cell

Problems and bugs

Is there a way to reference an image stored in workspace/notebook files in Markdown cells?

I am going through ML Specialization from Coursera and want to use DataLore to replace Coursera-embedded Jupyter notebooks. There is an image folder I can download from Coursera. I can upload it to the workspace (preferred) or notebook files in DataLore. So far, so good. But referencing these images in Markdown cells does nothing.

E.g.,

<figure>
    <center> <img src="/data/workspace_files/images/C1W1L1_Tour.PNG"  alt='missing' width="400"  ><center/>
<figure/>

… produces an empty rendered cell.

![](/data/workspace_files/images/C1W1L1_Tour.PNG)

… same - empty cell.

OK, that was my mistake. One cannot use absolute paths to reference images in notebooks. Not specific to Datalore.

For future references - I’ve uploaded the images folder to notebooks files (/data/notebook_files/) and was able to reference them as, e.g., ./images/C1W1L1_Tour.PNG.
