What are you trying to import?

If its a Power BI Theme thats a JSON file View | Click down arrow | Browse for themes.

 

To get a Custom Visual you have made thats a PBVIZ click the ... at the bottom of the visualisations pane and choose Import a visual from file.

 

To open a Power BI template go to File | Open and choose the pbit file.

 

Finally if you want an image Insert | Image and choose from existing images of these types

Thank you for your answer, but I don't understand. I select "all files" and then select the json file. This doesn't work.

What are you trying to import?

Custom visuals need to be of the file type .pbviz

@Greg0ry  I'm guessing its a theme since that is what is a json type.

Close the menu you are in.

If it is a Theme you need to do it via View | Browse for themes
