Display images in matrix securely
Hi
I am aware how we can display images in grids or matrix. What I am concerned about is how do we ensure that the connection between Power BI and the blob storage (where images are stored) is via a secure channel. Based on the knowledge base, "The Power BI mobile apps display the image only if the image URL is anonymously accessible. The image cannot be hosted on a site that requires a sign-in". Does this mean we cannot display images if we have enabled Access Control on the storage container?

Hi sthatte_admin ,
Thanks for amitchandak reply.
Based on your description, the Power BI mobile app will only display the image if the image URL can be accessed anonymously. This means that if access control is enabled on the storage container, the image will not be displayed directly in Power BI.
You can try to use POWER APPS in conjunction with Power BI to display the images.You can try the method provided in the following documentationShow “secured” Images in Power BI – PBI Guy (pbi-guy.com)
