at I needed to upload was a legend for various visuals. I found an article that explained how to create a table and turn it into a legend then I could PIN it to the dashboard. THanks for all the input and responses

Hi @sayali_deshmukh,

It seems like you are using One Drive for Business, the embed option is only supported on One Drive Personal currently.
