.How can I insert an image in Google Sheets?

“Google Sheets is a web-based spreadsheet program that allows users to create and organize data in a digital format. In order to visually enhance data, users may wish to insert images into their spreadsheets. This can be done by selecting the “Insert” option in the menu bar and choosing “Image.” From there, users can upload an image from their computer or insert one from a URL. This feature in Google Sheets allows for a comprehensive and visually appealing representation of data.”

IMAGE

Inserts an image into a cell.

Important: You can only use URLs that aren’t hosted at drive.google.com. SVG file format isn’t supported.

Volatility restrictions: you cannot directly or indirectly reference a volatile function in the base URL, the consistent part of the website’s address, of the IMAGE function.

  • NOW(), RAND(), RANDARRAY(), RANDBETWEEN() are examples of volatile functions.

Sample Usage

IMAGE("https://www.google.com/images/srpr/logo3w.png")

IMAGE(A2,2)

IMAGE(A2,4,120,200)

Syntax

IMAGE(url, [mode], [height], [width])

  • url – The URL of the image, including protocol (e.g. http://).

    • The value for url must either be enclosed in quotation marks or be a reference to a cell containing the appropriate text.
  • mode[ OPTIONAL – 1 by default ] – The sizing mode for the image

    • 1 resizes the image to fit inside the cell, maintaining aspect ratio.

    • 2 stretches or compresses the image to fit inside the cell, ignoring aspect ratio.

    • 3 leaves the image at original size, which may cause cropping.

    • 4 allows the specification of a custom size.

    • Note that no mode causes the cell to be resized to fit the image.

  • height[ OPTIONAL ] – The height of the image in pixels. mode must be set to 4 in order to set a custom height.

  • width[ OPTIONAL ] – The width of the image in pixels. mode must be set to 4 in order to set a custom width.
