Given an svg is generated, what components can display this image format ?
A link will be generated you can then show it in a web viewer or download it by web get request

Yes, but what components can display the image? Image, Button,Arrangements, Canvas etc ?
When the image is fetched you can use Image component to display the image
You can also use webviewer to display the image
sarthakdev.in:
Image component
Image component can't display svg images, as far as I know.

I can only get the webviewer to display an svg. Excuse my confusion, but if you download the image (no need for an extension by the way) does it convert the format?

Can you please explain what you are trying to ask
Yes but option to download png avatars will be available in the next update till then svg can be displayed in webviewer
When the avatar is downloaded as png you can display it on buttons and other components
This extension generates a new avatar url on each call. The webviewer can be coded to open that url displaying the image
You can use an extension to display svg images
And the third option in the next version the extension will be able to download png that you can display the image as you want
For any question please ask

So in it's present state, this extension is USELESS for most purposes until you can use png files?
