Asset preview images are generated and refreshed when the asset is saved. Images are generated and refreshed if the image is missing or older than 30 days for users with Edit access to an item. Asset previews always appear for CRM Analytics assets with no security predicate. However, a setting must be turned on to enable asset previews for all Lightning assets, and CRM Analytics assets that have a security predicate.
