Where are user photos saved?

Does anyone know where and/or how user images are saved in ServiceNow?


This is the field photo on the sys_user table. This dictionary type extends the String type of field.

It may be my assumption that this field (as a string) is just translated binary and that the images aren't saved like that are saved in the db_image table.

I'd like to know if I'm on the right track or if this is totally off.

They are stored in the sys_attachment table like all other attachments.   Here is an example:

Thank you for this information! Recently, I was looking for related pictures as well, thus stock photography came in handy. The fact that there are choices and many different images, such as upscale photo, is fantastic. I only choose the best and highest-quality solutions since I am picky and frequently do so
