Hi,

We have multiple apps for our portal, but one of them refuses to display our company logo for the app icon when we uploaded. We’ve tried for 6 months on and off, and it just keeps displaying the placeholder icon.

We don’t want to recreate it - is there another workaround?

Thanks!

Hi there!  
Would you mind providing the app ID and a screenshot of where the placeholder image is appearing so I can investigate further?  
Thanks in advance!

Hi!

Of course not - thanks for the help. The app id is: 208187.

I’ve attached two screenshots. One is the app icon showing the “placeholder”, and the other is how it appears when you click in to upload an app logo.

We have 4 other apps that use the same logo with no issues.

I took a look at the developer account, and one of the things that jumped out at me for that app is that there was no icon uploaded for Timeline Events. Including a screenshot of the page I’m referring to from the Dev Portal.

 ![27687i2BA7D3967FA8E790.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/b/5/b5a24e9a3681b823314e30009843229bc49fa842.png)

It’s a little unclear what the context of the first screenshot you provided is (where does this image appear in-app? is this from the developer portal itself, or from a portal with the app installed?), but I went ahead and uploaded the icon just as a test. Can you try clearing your cache and telling me if the icon is appearing now?  
Thanks!

There are no timeline event logos because there are no timeline event type - as evidenced by your screenshot. We are talking about the app icon - the one that shows in the integrations section of HubSpot, and elsewhere (for CRM extensions).

The first screenshot is the home “apps” page.

I hope that helps - I will check and see if your upload fixed the issue.

Thanks!

Did you upload a timeline event icon then? Because that fixed it… I don’t recall us doing that previously as we don’t use them.

Yep, I uploaded an icon when I responded earlier! That icon not only used in Timeline Events; it’s also visible in a few other places in-app. Glad to hear everything is working now.
