For instructions on how to access field types or how to add one, see Field Types.

Capabilities

• Attach one image to a record
• Control image compression through size settings (Original, Large, Medium, or Small)

• Add a tooltip to guide users on how the field should be used

Configuration

Name: Enter a label for the field that will appear in the table and on records.

Image size: Choose how uploaded images are stored:

• Original size: Keeps the image at its original resolution with no compression
• Large: Compresses the image to 2048px
• Medium: Compresses the image to 1080px
• Small: Compresses the image to 720px

Tooltip: Enable to add a helper text that appears when a user hovers over the field.

Required field: Enable to make uploading an image mandatory before saving a record.

Use Cases and Examples

Product catalog: In a Products table, attach a photo to each product record so your team can visually identify items without leaving the table.

Maintenance forms: In a Maintenance Forms table, let clients attach a photo of the device that needs to be repaired, giving technicians visual context before the visit.

Team directory: Store profile pictures in a People table to make records easier to identify at a glance.

Company events: Use an Image field to attach event photos to each event record, keeping visual documentation organized alongside other record data.

Keep in Mind

• Compression settings apply at upload time. Changing the image size setting after images have already been uploaded does not affect previously stored images.
• The Image field only accepts image files. For other file types, use the Files field instead.

FAQ

1- Can I download images attached to a record?

Yes. Images can be downloaded directly from the record in their original format.

2- What is the difference between the Image field and the Files field?

Both allow attaching files to a record, but the Image field only accepts image files. The Files field accepts any file type.

3- Does changing the image size setting affect existing images?

No. The compression setting only applies to images uploaded after the change. Previously uploaded images are not affected.

4- Can I use the Image field in automations?

Image fields have limited support in automations. You can reference them in conditions but cannot use them as values to set in update actions.

5- Can I make the Image field required?

Yes. Enabling the required option forces users to upload at least one image before saving the record.
