User avatar does not show

Hi,

I remember that users had default avatars, made of initials, if no picture was provided.
Here is from the doc :

Now, at every place that is supposed to show a user avatar (task assignation, users pane, etc…), I see the “broken file” icon :

Not sure when it started.

I tried to upload a jpg by drag and dropping it on the avatar, but it doesn’t work.
Maybe the “Avatar url” is now the only way to add an avatar ?

https://docs.ayon.dev/docs/admin_server_provisioning/#avatarurl-string

My server version : 1.7.5+202504031438

Does Get Avatar works?

YOU_SERVER_URL/api/users/{user_name}/avatar

I just pressed CTRL-F5, which fixed the problem, now “letters” avatars are displayed again :slightly_smiling_face:

I should note somewhere to do that from time to time, because it’s not the first time some cached stuff made silent problems.

Is the “Avatar url” the only way to add an avatar ? (instead of uploading an image)

As far as I know,

  1. Avatar URL in users tab.
  2. In profile settings.
  3. Using REST API Upload Avatar.
