MQTT image in notification

I have an image displayed on the front end using https://home-assistant.io/components/camera.mqtt/ and I want to attach this to a telegram notification. I have tried several attempts to attach the image without success.

Should it be something like…?

    data:
      photo:
        - file: /api/camera_proxy/camera.mqtt_camera.entity_picture

hi @robmarkcole - I just noticed that I posted a question that is, very very similar :slight_smile: Sonoff GK-200MP2-B IP Camera - #107 by keiran.harris

did you solve it your side?

The simplest way, is just to use the take snapshot service - so you do actually have a file.
