Getting Image URLs to display Image
I currently have a colum that references a image URL on another table based on the value but when I put these in a visual the image does not show up and I am only given the URL. How can I get the image to show up?
Solved! Go to Solution.

@lukas_alex,
Could you please post sample data of the image column? In Power BI Desktop, images work for URL that over web not local path, you can review the following example.

Lydia

I was using Sharepoint images which showed up for some and not for others.
After a lot of research, these two solutions solved my problem:
1) Embed the images within your report (Base64)
2) For Sharepoint images: embed the Power BI report on a Sharepoint page
Source: this article details these solutions and reasons for the image problem

Did you find a soliution?
I think the address of the images in Sharepoint is changing depending on the day or user.

Hi,
I have a similar issue. The picture displays if I use the AD conversion path, but when I try and use the O365 links below (all of which return an image in the browser) the vizuals do not display the image.
Is this because it is not specified as an image type? If so, how is that done with the below?
Or is it an authentication issue with getting a user image from O365?
https://outlook.office365.com/ews/Exchange.asmx/s/GetUserPhoto?email={user@email}.com&size=HR96x96
https://outlook.office365.com/owa/service.svc/s/GetPersonaPhoto?email={user@email}.com&UA=0&size=HR96x96
https://outlook.office365.com/owa/service.svc/s/GetPersonaPhoto?email={user@email}.com&UA=0&size=HR96x96&sc=1587223657595
Thoughts?

I also tried to use O365 links without success. I believe is an authentication factor.

If you select the field and go to the Modeling tab, verify that the Data Category is set to Image URL.

I have changed it but the image is still not showing up and I am just getting the URL. Is there a specific format the image needs to be saved as?

Hi,
I also have a similar problem.
I already set the data category to Image URL.
I found that it works if I use Google images or from Web, but I tried to upload my images to IMGur or my Sharepoint and it shows broken image
Is there any recommendation on which webiste I should upload my image so that it works better?
Thanks so much in advance @v-yuezhe-msft @deldersveld
Best regards
Kevin

I want to display the Power BI Dashboard as an image. I am using Cluster Map visualization in Power BI and trying to save the https: //hq - powerbi*** link ending with .jpg, in the Image URL field. But I can't see the image in Cluster Map visualization. Is it possible to use the Power BI dashboard link to show up as an image? Kindly advice.
