In the data editor when you click on the user profiles tab there should be a few options/ columns to configure along the right hand side (Name, Email, Image, etc…

Is your user profile ‘Data’ field for Image targeting an image column in your user profile sheet?

I have the same problem. Checkbox “Allow image upload” is enabled on the User Profile menu page.

I can click on the User picture and choose the file. It looks like the picture is being uploaded - I can even see it. But nothing is stored in the Image column for the signed-in user at the Users table. So, when I press the “back”(or “close”) button - the picture is lost.

Do you get this same behaviour in the published app, or does it only happen in the builder?

I noticed this behaviour in an app a couple of days ago, but it only happened in the builder so I didn’t worry about it.
