Automatic Emoji using Rules

[Yuri_BC]

The emoji field does a decent job replacing the relationship icon (the one that shows the type of relationship, little arrow) with a selected emoji…but only manually.

There are two problems I have with the relationship icon:

1. They cannot be turned off, fields always display it, regardless the purpose or use of the field, in many cases we don’t want to see that relationship icon.
2. They cannot be replaced by an emoji automatically, the field is not available in rules.

Note: the ability of disabling the relationship icon alltogether, is related to the specific use of the field, for example for navigation, in which ideally the whole display of the field needs to be different, not only the relationship icon, see also

This is an amazing and promising feature, thank you! What I would suggest as display option, is ‘List Card’, basically the same functionality as views lists where the item are clickable like buttons, and not editable. This is very useful when the field is used only for navigation purposes. When navigating to other entities, clicking the minuscule little arrow button is not userfriendly, and often results in unintentionally opening the field editor instead of navigating.

Changing emoji/icons for entities using a formula or rule is in the backlog. We plan to work on it this year and will share more details once available.

Is it possible to set/change the icons/emoji right now through the api / script automation?

const fibery = context.getService('fibery');

for (const entity of args.currentEntities) {
    await fibery.updateEntity(entity.type, entity.id, { 'Icon': ':kissing_heart:'})
}
