URL for Thumbnail picture used in Vault preview

[fichri17]

Hi everybody,

I am trying to set up a link between files in Vault and Power BI. For that I want to use the thumbnail picture used in Vault preview of the file, marked with a black outline in picture below.



Anybody know a direct URL to link to these pictures?
Would like to have so it uses the latest revision every time...

Br,

This is saved with the Inventor file iProperties, and has to be fetched via API, I believe:

https://adndevblog.typepad.com/manufacturing/2013/07/how-to-save-on-the-disk-the-thumbnail-image-of-...
also somehow useful:

Thank you Gabriel.

This is helpful, but honestly I was hoping there was a direct URL that could lead me to the picture without using API
(I`m lazy 😁)

So hoping someone has a direct access path, or else I have to use the API way....
