Hi @yali

Sorry for the delay.

I verified internally, as of now, file:///pkg/assets/image/vega.png paths from the 3P app do not work for ToastKepler icons. Currently ToastKepler does not support loading icons from the user app’s local assets.

We will add support for data URI scheme for ToastKepler icons.

You can convert the local image to a base64 data URL and pass it as iconUri:

iconUri: 'data:image/png;base64,<base64-encoded-image-data>'

Constraint: The entire iconUri string (including the data:image/png;base64, prefix) must not exceed 4096 bytes.
NOTE: This is not yet supported in the current release.

Warm Regards,
Ivy
