GoogleDrive URL Image stopped rendering on service and desktop

Hi All,

 

Multiple reports that contain Google images and have been used for years, stopped rendering correctly on or about the start of 2024. What we see is a blank (white) box where the image used to be with no error message. This happens in the service and in the Desktop. No changes were made to the reports and we tested again to make sure the images are public and accessible by pasting the URL into a browser.

 

Any help would be gretly appreciated.

Thank you!

Thanks for posting the ticket mnahmany. I am experiencing the same issue, and my URLs also retrieved images correctly outside of PowerBI. So it appears to be a PowerBI issue.  I upgraded to the latest Desktop release and this did not change anything.

Already watched this video multiple times. Itis exactly how we do it and it has worked for years.

So is this a ticket?

old problem.

there was a workaround, but it looks like it does not work anymore. Probably, Google has changed something
