Overview
The Rich Text Editor Component can be used on Appian interfaces where you want to show the rich text information in readable format to the end user. We can use the component to show it as an email subject typing interface.
With this component you can add images, customize tables etc. This also has a functionality called placeholders using which you can use the same information in multiple items in the editor without retyping.Additionally it allows uploading of images which get stored in the specified Appian folder (requires separate install of the Rich Text Editor Connected System Plug-in).

Key Features & Functionality
Parameters:
Hi, in the previous version of this plugin image pasting for smaller images was possible even without the connected system, now it seems it's not the case. Was there any specific reason for this change?
Thanks in advance, Aleks
Hi aleksandrss0001 ,
In the previous version, smaller images were included as base64 values in the HTML code. This caused some performance issues in the editor. Therefore, we made connected system as the required parameter to upload any images(above 1KB). Please ensure that the 'allowImageUpload' parameter is set to true.
Regards,Ananthakrishnan S
In order to address this issue, we are creating a custom function to convert Document Ids in HTML to Base64. This will enable you to include image attachments in emails. Development has already begun, and the feature will soon be available alongside the Advanced Rich Text Editor Connected System.
