PNG Image not displaying in a Card Visual

This used to work up to the middle of 2021 ...

 

I can no longer display a PNG Image from a Website in a Card Visual (or a Table Visual).

 

Trying to show Country Flag from the "https://www.countries-ofthe-world.com/flags-normal/flag-of-????.png" website 

Nothing is being displayed.   
The data is in an Import Model and the column is marked as being in the Image URL Data Category.

What has changed???

Hi @Kealkil4 ,

Pls refer the official documentation: 

  • The image needs to be in one of these file formats: .bmp, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png, or .svg
  • The URL needs to be anonymously accessible, not on a site that requires a sign-in, such as SharePoint. However, if images are hosted on SharePoint or OneDrive, you may be able to get an embed code that points directly to them.

The url you provided I could not invit it ,so the picture could not be anonymously accessible.

You could test the below link:

In addition, according to the test, the visual effect of the card does not support image display.
