Keep in mind

• When using the Upload option, the image is static and the same for all users and records.

FAQ

1- Can I display an image from a URL instead of uploading a file?

No. The Image block supports uploading from your computer or pulling from a table's image field, but not from external URLs.

2- Can I update the image after saving the block?

Yes. You can edit the block at any time and upload a new image to replace the current one.

3- Does the Image block support animated GIFs?

Yes. GIF files can be uploaded and will display with their animation preserved inside the app.

4- Can I use the Image block to show a different image per record?

Yes, if you use the Table option and select a table that has an image field. The block will display the image stored in that field for each record. If you use the Upload option, the image is static and the same for all records.
