SPO admins will need to upload user profile images via MAC Admin Centre or AAD admin center. Users should use the “Universal Me” control or Delve to upload profile images.

2023-07-27MC prepareFor all users identified above: The profile image will no longer be edited/uploaded through SPO “Edit Profile UI” experience or through “Person Immersive” UI experiences. Instead, all such users would be requested to use the “Universal Me” control available on top right corner of the Share Point Home page for uploading images. Alternatively, they can also use Delve to upload profile images.
For SPO admins: Admins who upload the user profile image on behalf of the end users will no longer be able to upload images via SPO Admin Centre. Instead, all SPO admins will be requested to upload user profile images via MAC Admin Centre or AAD admin center.
We are providing an early heads-up to ensure our customers have sufficient time to adapt to upcoming changes as we will not be able to grant any extension for this change.
