Use an image card to display a relevant image for an item on a page. For example, you can use image cards to illustrate office locations, products, or different employees in your company.
You can add one or more image cards to a board, report, or the Additional insights panel on worksheets. On report pages, you can arrange image cards on slides or add them to the Insights panel. You can add an image as a URL, either as a static URL or as a URL in a line item, or from the image library.
To use an image from a line item, the source model must contain a line item with the format Text and type Link. The line item must contain a valid image URL.
When you add images as a URL, images must have publicly accessible URLs to appear in a PDF Export. The URL must begin with https:// and the type of the referenced image must be one of: PNG (.png), JPEG(.jpg, .jpeg), or GIF (.gif).
When you add images from the image library, images must be one of: PNG (.png), JPEG(.jpg, .jpeg), SVG (.svg), BMP (.bmp), or GIF (.gif).
