Images as Column values

[Anonymous]

Hello All,

is there anyway to store images as column values in power bi desktop while we enter data into the table in query editor (Power BI Desktop > Query Editor > Enter data > Create Table window)...!!

Thanks in Advance.

@Anonymous Unfortunatley not at this stage. You can copy paste values but it won't accept images. Even if you have imported data you can specify column as of type binary for images or have images url but not the actual image.

Did you ever find a solution for this issue?  I am trying to do the same thing.

Thanks for the reply @ankitpatira .

I tried giving url in the following format (C:\Users\UserName\FolderName\ImageName.jpg/Png), as a value for image column in every record(lets say 5records), but i didn't get any luck.

am i missing anything here..??

@Anonymous I have seen images working in table visual but it only works for URL that over web not local path. So if you upload your image and then use that URL in table visual it will work. Also ensure column is defined as Image URL under Data Category.
