If you mean player's Avatar image URL then you can put any string in it. There should be no issue as PlayFab just treat it as a normal string. But this is highly not recommended. Avatar image URL should only be used to store player's avatar URL. If you use it to store something else, it may cause confusion. And PlayFab provides a lot of ways to store data. For player related data, please see Player Information in Tutorials & Guides. For title level, please see Title Data. Besides, you may also use Entities which introduces new access patterns that are designed to alleviate pain points of the current account and data systems.

thank you very much. I thought I have to use Cloudscripst for saving data like ranking or player experience.... I'll take a look to Title Data and Player Informations. Using Avatar URL as string data is the last way for solving this faster.
