How to change icons of App based on light/dark mode?

Hi,

I have an App that has a set of icons that work fine on light mode, but if I switch to dark mode, they become invisible. If I add the lighter icons and dark mode, then the icons become invisible in light mode.

Is there a way to have both sets of icons and have them change based on the active mode?

Developer guide does not provide any evidence of loading different icons based on selected theme.  The documentation states the order the Icons are loaded which are triggered based on quality of display and location in the app.
