Hi, does anyone know how to add an image that is stored locally using blox? We found this article to embed image stored in google drive, but we want to do this with an image stored locally.

Hey @gwolfe 

If you want to store image-files locally on the sisense server and use them in Blox, then you can store them in the folder Branding (plus a subfolder if needed). You could also probably store it in plugins/blox/blox-images/, but I dont know what happens to that folder when the plugin is updated.

After uploading the url will be: https://your-sisense-url.com/branding/<image>

You can use this in your elasticube if you need to be dynamic. For that you can follow Davids link
