Adding a profile picture, or 'avatar,' is a great way for users to personalize their Recognize Experience. Some companies, however, may have specific guidelines for what pictures are allowed to be used and may not want staff to upload their own. Admins are able to restrict users from editing their own profile avatars, and can instead manually add avatars on the employee's behalf.
Enabling/Restricting Users From Editing Profile Avatars
- Start by signing in & clicking the 'Menu' button in the upper right corner of the page
- Select 'Company Admin' from the drop-down menu to navigate to the Company Admin portal
- Select 'Settings' in the navigation menu to the far left
- Under the 'General' section, you will see the setting 'Restrict users from editing profile avatars', which you can toggle on if you'd like to keep employees from adding their own avatars
How to Manually Add Avatars for Staff
NOTE: If you are uploading avatars via Microsoft / Office 365 User Sync, any manually-entered data will be overwritten.
