Excel Icon Rules in power BI (Bullets)

Hello,

I've been trying to reproduce the table of this link, but unfortunately I am not able to create the red/green/yellow bullets and I cant see the  Retail Analysis Sample in my power BI version. I'd like to create bullets as below:

 

 

I have seen examples in where people create columns with "URL icons", by creating a new table with a correlation between Column A (numbers) & Column B (icons from URL), but what I need is something like an excel rule in which if table column contains 1 then shows a green icon and if cointains a 0 a red icon.

 

Can someone help me? Thanks in advance.

HI @Anonymous ,

You can add a calculated column with unichar function to display symbol icon, then you can enable conditional formatting on it to display different color based on other fields.

Icon = UNICHAR(11044)

Thanks a Lot,

Worked fine. As I had 3 possible values (0=Black, 1=Green; 2=Red), a lot of KPIs (Rows) and 12 Months(columns), what I did was to convert the text columns to number, then I created another 12 month columns = Unichar (11044) and then I created a Table Visual and applied for each new icon month_column the following steps:
