docs: link external connections from custom chart types - #1199
Merged
Conversation
Chart types render in the data apps sandbox, so images from a URL field are blocked until a connection with public images enabled is linked. The chart types page now walks through registering, allowing images, and attaching the connection in the builder; the data apps page documents the two connection settings the steps rely on and links back.

…icker The pictures now come from a chart type built inside the Explorer against the demo's payment method icons, so the linked image host is visibly doing its job. The picker copy is updated to Configure → Change → Project, which is what the Explorer shows today.

Description
Custom chart types render in the data apps sandbox, so images from a URL field are blocked until the chart type is linked to an external connection with public images enabled (shipped in lightdash/lightdash#28136 and #28235). The docs didn't cover the chart type side of that flow.
