Hi @Anonymous

 

I would recommend creating a measure such as this:

 

Selected Link =
SELECTEDVALUE ( YourTable[Link], <expression resturning default link> )

This will return a default link in the case of multiple Link values, otherwise the selected link image in the case of a single Link value.

 

Ensure that the Data Category for this measure is set to Image URL (Modeling => Data Category) and then place this measure in the table or other visual that supports Image URLs.

 

Regards,

Owen

HI @Anonymous,

 

I'd like some sample data for test and coding formula. 

According to your snapshot, it seems like summarize mode 'first' return the first record based on alphabetical order.
