Introduction

Welcome back to Workout Wednesday! This week we’re wishing everyone a very happy holiday season. Join us as we celebrate with a straightforward challenge, embedding a video in a Power BI report using the HTML Content custom visual. 

Requirements

1. Create a custom image that you’ll use as your landing page.
2. Create a custom video that you’d like to display in your report. Add a report page for your video. 
3. Insert a table to your report that includes the HTML that points to your video.
   •  The only data that needs to be in the table is the actual HTML pointing to your video.
   • The video needs to be hosted online and in .mp4 format.
   • I wasn’t able to get YouTube or OneDrive hosted videos to work. If you make this work, drop a comment!
4. Add the image to the canvas and set an action to navigate to your new video page.
5. Ensure that all visuals meet the minimum standards of having alt text, that the tab order in your report makes sense, and that your color choices meet the minimum contrast standards.

Dataset

This week’s challenge doesn’t have a dataset! Create your own images and videos to use!
