# Upload image

The **Upload Image** action allows end users to upload an image into the 3D configurator.

<figure><img src="/files/7orrEmXRu6YfWSMUrLDj" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Settings**

* **Material** — Choose the material to which the uploaded image will be applied. **Note:** The image is assigned to a material, not to an object.
* **Property Selection** — Specify which material properties the uploaded image will affect. Available options include:

  * [Color](/documentation/design-process/materials-and-textures/basic-materials/color.md)
  * [Opacity](/documentation/design-process/materials-and-textures/basic-materials/opacity.md)
  * [Emission](/documentation/design-process/materials-and-textures/basic-materials/emission.md)

  All other material properties remain unchanged, meaning the uploaded image will only be applied to the selected properties.

{% hint style="info" %}
The uploaded image is applied only within the browser session, and refreshing the browser tab will reset it
{% endhint %}
