I am trying to use an SVG image as the background image for my PBI report. I would like to include the image in the JSON theme file so when I create a new page in the report, it's automatically added.

I figured this out. I was making the mistake of converting the SVG image to JSON instead of base64. I didn't use an SVG URL, just an SVG image and didn't run into any issues when I imported the theme.

Steps I took:

- Convert the SVG image to base64 (Data URI)

- insert that code into the JSON code
