## APIs

ImageSpan(value: ResourceStr | PixelMap)

**Parameters**

| value | [ResourceStr](ts-types.md#ResourceStr) \| [PixelMap](../apis/js-apis-image.md#pixelmap7)  | Yes| Image source.

The value format is data:image/[png\|jpeg\|bmp\|webp];base64,[base64 data], where [base64 data] is a Base64 string.<br>\- Strings with the **file:///data/storage** prefix are supported, which are used to read image resources in the **files** folder in the installation directory of the application. Ensure that the application has the read permission to the files in the specified path.|
