Hi @yamilnb,

Thank you for this feedback. There's a real concern regarding image pasting in a SharePoint field. As you may know, in the actual rich text native field on a SP list, you can't add insert image from local without first uploading it in the hosting site. And this can be done only from the "classic experience" of the rich text field.

That said, I did try to paste an image from the web in a SPFx Form Customizer sample which is using the RichText component and linked to a SP field, it worked.

Do you a code snippet that demonstrates how do you save the RichText content in SharePoint? I would like to repro the issue.

The issue appears when I try to copy and paste a local image and in fact, It aslo happen with native SharePoint field.

Regards.
