Image Missing After Sendout Due to Expired Content Store Element

Prev Next

Problem

After a message has been sent, an image is no longer displayed because the corresponding Content Store element has expired or was deleted.

Instead of the image, recipients see a broken image placeholder or no image at all.


Cause

Content Store elements can expire automatically if an expiration date is set or if automatic expiration is enabled.

Once an element is deleted from the system, the original image reference in already sent messages no longer resolves correctly.


Solution

If the original image file is still available, the issue can be resolved with the help of Mapp Support.

Step 1: Re-upload the image

Upload the original image again to the Content Store.

This creates a new Content Store ID.

Step 2: Collect the required information

Prepare the following details:

  • Old Content Store ID

  • New Content Store ID

  • Location of the image in the message

Step 3: Contact Support

Contact your Mapp Support representative and provide the collected information.

Support can replace the old Content Store ID with the new one at server level so that the image is displayed correctly again.


Important

  • The original image file must still be available. Deleted files cannot be recovered.

  • The replacement does not change the original message content; it updates the reference to the stored file.
