Image ​

The Image component shows a picture on a dashboard, such as a logo, a banner or a diagram. You can make it a clickable link.

  1. Upload the image somewhere your viewers can open it, for example the site's Site Assets library, and copy its URL.
  2. Open the dashboard in edit mode.
  3. In the Widgets pane, open the General tab and drag Image onto the dashboard. Resize it.
  4. Select the component. On the Properties tab, paste the image's address into URL under Basic Settings.
  5. Choose the Mode, and the padding and link if you need them, see Settings.

An Image component has no data source, so it has no Assign Data tab.
