Image Size

Customize image height and width in percentage, or keep the original size.


Link

Link links the image to other pages, as well as datablocks.


Image URL Template

Image URL Template supports userdomain and links filter from other datablocks. I.e.

/customers/{userdomain}.png   (hosted as a standalone website)

/dashboardapi/imagebrowser/Image?path=customers%2F{userdomain}.png  (hosted inside emite dashboardservice)

/dashboardapi/imagebrowser/Image?path=customers%2F{linking}.png  


The userdomain placeholder will be replaced by current user's first userdomain. This is good for sharing pages with a company logo based on user's userdomain, provided the company logo name is the same as the userdomain name.
The linking placeholder will be replaced by the linkfilter sent from other datablocks.
