I agree. But that is the requirement, i have to use Model only becuase that is already being created and we have to deploy a dashbaord based out of that Model.

 

any other suggestions or Is there any custom visual which can fulfill this task?

Hi Anonymous，

 

You could change the data category to be ImageURl in SSAS site, then when you have a live connection with SSAS, the image should be  shown in the report.

 

I have found this video which should help you.

 

Hope this can help you!

 

Best Regards,

Cherry

    Hi v-piga-msft,

     

    Actually I am just writing a DAX measure for this operation. Like-:

     

    SampleMeasure = If(A>B),image1URL

                                  If(A<C),image2URL

                                  ,image3URL;

     

    So that means this column we just need at report level and it will be made in report only after pulling the data from model/cube. What to do in this situation? I am all tied up.

     

    Regards,

    Droid

    Hello v-piga-msft 

     

    I had the same issue you had you can quickly correct it just changing the measure data type to "text" than the data category "image url" should appear

     

    Hope it helps
