Image

The Image block adds a fixed image to a layout. The image you choose when designing the layout appears for every user who views that page - it doesn't change per record. This is different from an image field, which stores a different image for each record. Use the Image block for branding, decorative visuals, instructional diagrams, or any image that belongs to the layout itself rather than the data.

When to use it

• Placing your company logo in the header of a customer-facing form or page.
• Adding a decorative banner image at the top of a dashboard or home page.
• Displaying an instructional diagram inside a form to help users fill it out correctly.
• Showing a placeholder or default image where you want visual interest without dynamic data.
• Branding internal pages so team members know they're working in your company's app.

How to add it

1. Open the layout editor.
2. Click Add Block in the position where you want the image to appear.
3. Select Image from the block type list.
4. Upload your image or select one from your media library.
5. Set the image dimensions, alignment, and any border or padding using the settings panel.
6. Add an alt text description for accessibility.
7. Save and publish your layout.

Example

You've built a client intake form that you share with new customers as a link. You want it to look professional and on-brand. At the top of the form layout, you add an Image block and upload your company logo. The logo now appears at the top of the form for every client who opens it, giving the form a polished, recognizable appearance. Beneath the logo, the form fields continue as normal.

Tips

• Keep image file sizes reasonable - large images slow down page load times for your users.
• Use PNG format for logos (they support transparent backgrounds). Use JPG for photographs.
• Place your logo in a Row block alongside a Text block to create a header with the logo on one side and a title on the other.
