Answer 1

The first thing to do is to retrieve the context of the logged user :

Being in a component, you can do :

this.dashboard.context.user to get the userid this.dashboard.context.roles to get the roles of the user : it is an array which will contain 'Administrator' if the user is an admin

Then, you can load and display the image you want.
