How do I import an image?

What I’m trying to do

Embed an image in a note

Things I have tried

The documentation says that ![[Whatever]] can be used to embed images, but this seems to expect a file from within the vault. Using the relative path of the image file does not work. How can I import the image into the vault so it can be embedded? The help does not have anything on this topic.

Drag the graphic from the file manager into a note: the graphic will be copied over to the vault and the wikilink to it will be created: ![[image.jpg]].

You can display external images using a markdown link preceded by exclamation mark like:

![IMG_20240514_165253.jpg](<file:///path/to/image.jpg>)

Indeed, this requires an URI with absolute path.

Ahh, thanks. Of course it was something simple like that.
