Need to display image as tooltip on mouse hover
Hi Musketeers
It won’t work with card visual because it doesnot support images from URLs. In Power BI to show images including in tooltips the column must be categorized as Image URL and you need to use a visual that supports images.
You can create report page tooltip and use a Table or Multi-row card visual and not card then add the image URL column to that visual, set its Data Category to Image URL

Hi Krishnakanth, Thanks for your help. why I was insisting on card visual because I have a dashboard (developed by some one who has left ) where for tooltip page, card visual is used and it shows image. but when I try to do the same it doesnot work. I had searched it in chat gpt and got the same responce what your are saying. So I am surprised, how the card visual is working in this dashboard. below is the image of visual used in existing dashboard

Hi Musketeers
It's a new card visual.
Can you check this blog to implement the tooltip https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-in/blog/new-card-visual-public-preview/
You can try using a table visual which might work for you
