Cannot download Power BI Visual as image _ Please help!!

Power BI Image Download question.png

Dear Power BI Community,

 

I am unable to download any Power BI visual that I create as an image. Can someone please help me with why I cannot download it as any image file (png,jpeg etc)?? The three dots on the top of visual only show options such as 'export data' or 'show as table', but there is no option to download the image.

 

Please help.

Rahul

Hi @Anonymous , 

Could you please tell me that did you upload to Power BI Service?  I cannot reproduce your issue. I can copy visual as image.

  • Navigate to the report you want to copy from
  • Hover over a visual and click on the “Copy visual as image” icon on the visual header
  • When your visual is ready, paste your image using “Ctrl + V” or “right-click > Paste”

Please refer to the blogs.

Copy a Visual as an Image 

Disable copy as an image for a specific visual 

 

If I have misunderstood your meaning, please provide your pbix file without privacy information for us to test.

Also, powerpoint has an awesome feature that if you select multiple elements within the same page and you hit (ctrl+c), it automatically creates an image.png so you can (ctrl-v) anywhere.

The same should happen if you ctrl+c a visual within PBI.

 

Or  simply, Alt-PrtScn, paste into Paint and then crop.

There is no icon to copy on my visuals. Also there is no way for me to ctrl+C or copy the image.
