Power BI Desktop does not render URL Image from http but work from https

Hi All Experts,

 

Hope you can guide me through this strange behavior.

 

On a column of URL Images, all images are posted on public URL, some start with http: and some start with https:.  The column is set to "Image URL".  All the images could be displayed perfectly fine before (when I was using Power BI Desktop July 2020 version. I know it is a very old version. XD).  However after my recent upgrade, all the images that start with http: shows broken image; while all the images that start with https: are displayed normally.

 

Any idea how to fix this?  Appreciate you advice.

 

Best,

Fung

 

 

  • Hi All,

    I figured out how to fix the problem.  Everything resumes normal after I uncheck the below preview features.  Hope that won't before an intergrated part that I cannot turn off in the future. 🙂

     

    Thank you amikm and v-chenwuz-msft for your feedback.

     

    Best,

    Hi Fung,

     

    Power BI desktop supports HTTP and HTTPS, the issue is caused by the service of the url, please check the URL is that the response of the request is image without web jump. 

     

    Or you can try the HTML visual Getting the Visual | HTML Content - Custom Visual for Power BI (html-content.com)
