WebAccess Privilege

I am trying to get my custom visual certified. I have been asked to remove Web Access privlege.

How can I allow users to use image urls in my visual without this privilege

"Certified" means that it is not (easily) possible to inject nefarious payloads (like malicious code in image meta data). Any third party web access would enable that, so that's the reason why it cannot be certified.

Images can be loaded using data URLs in certified visuals. Report developers will typically need to do this using base64 format using a measure. Here's a short video on how users might do this (and what they might need to bear in mind).

Good luck!
