A Google Chrome extension that allows you to:
- Enlarge the images in a Metabase Question by clicking them
- Click an image again to toggle it's size back to default (30px tall)
- Customize the size that images enlarge to by adjusting the multiplier in our plugin GUI
This is helpful when users/customers submit photo data that you want to analyze directly in Metabase, rather than having to create a third-party app for this.
- On a "User signups" question for a SaaS app, using this plugin to enlarge and view user avatars, and moderate against AI/fake avatars
- On a "Latest meals added" question for a calorie counter app, using this plugin to enlarge and view the latest photos submitted by users
- On a "Latest deliveries" question for a logistics app, using this plugin to view Proof of delivery photos provided by couriers
By default, this plugin only works on Official Cloud-Hosted Metabase Dashboards using a .metabaseapp.com
URL.
Unfortunately due to Google Chrome Plugin API restrictions, I'm not able to include permissions for this app to work on your self-hosted Metabase or any Metabase using a custom domain.
Fortunately, you can white-list your domain easily by running:
- First, clone this project locally, and CD to the project's root directory
- Next, run
npm run add-domain "metabase.example.com"
inside your local shell - Next, open Google Chrome, and visit (
chrome://extensions
)[chrome://extensions] - Enable Developer mode in the top-right hand corner (if it's not already enabled)
- Now, click the new "Load unpacked" button in the top-left hand corner, and select the project folder
- That's it. Enjoy your new plugin!
PS, Need to share your plugin with coworkers/colleagues? I recommend installing it on their behalf, or sending them your project directory ready for install, along with instructions 3-6.
