Hi. The link you shared is to add images to the attachments.
But I wanna add them straight to the rich text field. How to do that? Though I'm able to add images from the internet, but not local images that are in my Laptop
You didn't mention rich text fields, otherwise the answer would have been different :)
I don't think you can do that in one go, as the rich text editor has its own mechanism for inserting images. You may be able to upload the images as attachments/content and then link to those in the rich text field, but I haven't been down that route myself.
I've been able to upload images straight to the Rich Text Field. But the images that I could successfully upload where those from the internet and not the ones from the local folder.
That's because the image links were pointing externally to Salesforce. If you add a local image using the Rich Text Editor it will upload that to a particular place and then insert the image link HTML. Through the data loader you can't populate a rich text field and upload an image as they are operations on two different sobjects.
I can't - as I said earlier, I think you'll have to upload the images, then get the URLs for them, then upload the rich text fields with the new URLs. If you upload the images as static resources you should be able to do this.
There's instructions on how to do this at:
