Showing images in a list/report

Good Morning! I've created a list view that has a column for images. Using the text mode outline in "Common Uses for Text Mode" documentation. But I'm having 2 problems 1) My request/review users see the URL not the image while my work licence and above see the image. These are projects and documents they have access to. 2) The images are stored in Workfront in the project document folder. I open the image in browser using the "open" option under the details pane and copy the URL. Then add that URL to the project details. It works initially but after some time, like an hr or so, the link "breaks" and the image no longer is shown and the link takes you to the document folder but not directly to the document. I think the URL might be expiring. Any insight on how I can get a permanent URL for an image loaded on Workfront? My users have been using Trello so prefer to have a representative image on their projects for quick reference. If I can get this list view to work it would be great for user adoption.

I created a form with a calculated field with the following expression. Even if an aws link is in the project's URL field it will tease out the image info and convert to a workfront URL.

IF(CONTAINS(Project.URL,"amazonaws"),CONCAT("https://havertys.my.workfront.com/internal/document/thumbnail?documentVersionID=",SUBSTR(Project.URL,108,32),"&ID=",SUBSTR(Project.URL,75,32)),Project.URL)

Hi Kristy,

Can you give some context as to how you use this? is it a document form attached to the uploaded file?

I added this calc to a document form (changed the url to our instance), added it to an icon document I use in reports and recalculated the expressions but it returned "N/A".
