Display Images from URL Link - Not Working
- 9 years ago
Scott,
In regards to using DropBox try this:
1: Go to the file to share, and click "Share".
2: Click "Create a Link"
3: Click "Copy Link"
- The url output should look like "https://www.dropbox.com/s/8lhbtky7gq973db/CARN%20122%282%29.JPG?dl=0"
4: Replace "?dl=0" with "?raw=1"
- The result will be that instead of the image being shown as part of the dropbox experience the image will be in a raw layer and shows inside PBI.
Scott;
I have a similar problem with Image URL links to Sharepoint online. If I display the field as a Web URL I can click on it and takes me to the right image and works fine. But if I convert the field to Image URL it displays the broken image icon and not my image. Any recomendation?
Hi,
I'm also facing the similar problem.
URL is not of website, instead of the image in the website.
My data is is excel which stores the links of URL.
This excel file is stored in share point.
And it has also been converted as Image URL.
Attaching screen shots.

Same problem occurs here. My attempt to integrate the link of an image from sharepoint into a seperate excel failed even though I am connected to sharepoint via powerbi. Appreciate any suggestions.

The issue appears to entirely an authnetication issue from PowerBI to rest of O365. When I use Delve images the images don't work unless I manually connect to Delve once. The token is then on my machine and if I refresh the report the images work. This is an issue that Microsoft should really correct. I will create a new thread/suggestion to see if they can get this fixed.
