Display Picture implementation in Dashboard

[Anonymous]

Hi Experts,

How to implement the profile picture (dynamic user photo when they open the report from their device) ? Below the text box written last modified date and modified by name in the report , here before the name i want to apply the picture of the user .

Both Modified Date and Modified By taken from the data source only , but like the same i have Modified by.picture column but not in png format .

So is there any possibility to convert this image and apply the same into the report ?

Thanks

DK

Hi @Anonymous 

Thank you very much danextian for your prompt reply.

I found your post while checking the forum. Did you solve your problem? If not, here is some information for you.

Make sure your data source contains an Image URL column.

Under the Modeling tab in the ribbon, find Data Category and set it to Image URL.

Add a visual and make sure the image displays correctly in the visual.

Hi @Anonymous 

Normally, you can extract the image url up to the extension but since the images are private the authentication should happen prior to loading them but based on testing, Power BI attempts to load the images first so they appear broken. What more if the users don't have access to the images at all?
