Sprite not showing correctly? (New to Unity)

[west hinge]

Honestly not sure if this belongs here or in #📲┃ui-ux, I will move if necessary. Basically I have a sprite in my canvas that looks good in the editor but renders as a solid colour in the game.

When UI Canvas is not in world space what you see is one pixel the size of Unity unit (on the scene). Your camera at left bottom corner of that UI rectangle looking at few huge pixels of this enlarged sprite

If you want to put image on the UI use UI Image component instead
