The Mark as Protected per-column setting in the data editor not only protects data but also makes the data invisible in app. There are scenarios where the data should be protected but still visible in app. Here is one case: User Profile Protection A “Mark as read-only” setting should solve that problem.

if read-only, then don’t put any writing components in there… simple… or if just this item… then use boolean column to mark it as read-only and make writing components visibility depend on that column

Good suggestions, but neither of them would help with Ralfs specific use case.

Because this: [image] User Profile Protection Ask for Help I’ve had this same issue in every app that uses a formula/automation for the users table. Is there a way we can have the option to disable uploading of a new user profile image? [Notification_Center] Also referenced here: and here @Mark @Jason

i really dont understand the problem…what is the problem??? i’m reading these… and dont see the problem… if the picture in user profile is the problem… take it out

The problem is that you can’t stop a user from uploading a profile picture. There are workarounds to remove it if they do, but it would be nice to be able to prevent it in the first place.

if there is no column for profile image… how they can upload it???

If there is no column for the profile image, then you can’t configure User Profiles.

configure it … and take out after… but still… i dont get what the problem is

Haven’t tried that, but it still don’t think it wouldn’t solve Ralf’s problem. As I understand it, he wants every user to have the same profile image (which he sets), and not allow them to change it.
