The Avatar Field is used to display an image, text, or an icon. This field is generally used to display a user’s profile picture for their account.
If the field is configured to display an image, the user can upload their own image to display. This image can also be set as the workspace icon, ensuring a consistent appearance between the avatar and the workspace icon. If no image is uploaded, a default avatar type can be set as a fallback.
The avatar’s size, roundness, fill, border, and font size (for text avatars) can be customized.

The icon type displays an icon from Font Awesome, the image type displays an uploaded image, and the text type displays text.

Use Uploaded File as Workspace Icon
Only applicable when “Avatar Type” is set to “Image”.
If you’re using Workspace Cards, then you can set this to “Yes” to have the file that’s uploaded be used as the image on the card for this workspace. This also means that if the uploaded file is cleared, so will the workspace card icon. The workspace card icon will be synced with the file that is uploaded to this field.
The file will only be used for the workspace card if the storage location is public and workspace cards are being used. If any of these conditions are not met and this field is set to “Yes”, errors will be added to Application Logs.
