Hello All Experts,

I have a table in SQL Server which has Image URL column, when I put these in a visual the image does not show up. How can I get the image to show up?

here below is the sample file

In response to your question, since the data you provided comes from your database, I can't get it, so I created the following table

Select the slicer in Power Bi Desktop and drag the image ID into the slicer

Select “Get more visuals” on the visual page

Search “Simple image”

Click on the simple image you just added and drag the image URL into the visual

Then you can see the image displayed in the visual

You can follow my practice to see if there is a problem with your operation

Anonymous, thanks for you reply. I followed the same operation but did not get the image displyed.

I paste the image URL on brower and it will prompt up the download directly instead of displaying the image on the brower.

Cannot figure out why the image cannot be displayed.

The URL of your image comes from your database and is not anonymous, so it will not be displayed in Power BI Desktop
