Image component image-adaptive-forms-core-component

An Image component in an Adaptive Form is a way to include images in a form. These images can be used to enhance the overall design of the form, provide additional information, or serve as a visual aid to help users understand the form鈥檚 purpose. The image component can be used to add a logo, a photo, or a graphic in the form.

For accessibility, it is important to specify Alternate text to the image to provide a short, descriptive text alternative for the image, that describes the image to users who cannot see it.
