The Image widget displays a picture on your dashboard. Use it for branding, a visual reference, or an image that links to somewhere else.
What this widget is for
Dashboards are shared workspaces, and a well-placed image makes them feel like home. Add your company logo, a floor plan, a process diagram or a photo of the team. Because the image can also carry a link, it can work as a visual shortcut - for example, clicking a diagram opens the full process map.
What the widget shows
The widget displays the selected image, scaled to fit the widget using the fit option you choose. If a URL is configured, selecting the image opens that address.
Quick Steps
Select the Edit Layout button on the dashboard.
Select the Add widget button. The Add Dashboard Widget window opens.
On the Details tab, enter a widget header and select Image from the Type dropdown.
On the Configuration tab, select or upload the image and set the options listed below.
Select the green Save button. The widget displays on the dashboard.
Select the Done button to exit editing mode.
Configuration options
Image: the picture to display. Select an existing attachment or upload a new one. This option is required - the widget will not save without an image.
Fit: choose how the image fills the widget. Cover fills the widget and crops the edges; Contain shows the whole image and leaves space where needed.
Alt Text: a short description of the image for accessibility and for cases where the image cannot load.
URL: an optional web address that opens when the image is selected.
Open mode: when a URL is set, choose whether it opens in the Same tab or a New tab.
Every widget also has common display options for the header, title, subtitle, help text and title styling. See Managing Dashboard Widgets for details.
