Why can't I display images from on-premises servers in the table Visual of Power BI?

Hi @PelleTAM2021 

You have to customize the path of the pictures to be able to display them inside Power BI, this video may help you : Import images in Power BI from local sources

Hi @PelleTAM2021 

Which kind of format issues?

I figured out what the problem was. My images were too large, so the line limit (32766 letters) of the text column was exceeded. These two posts can be used to circumvent the problem.

Hi othy_bi, 

Only parts of an image are displayed and parts of others are cut off in the tabel visual.

Yes, I have adjusted this setting. However, this does not change anything. I think the problem is that the images don't come from the Internet but from a local server. And I'd like to know why Power Bi doesn't support images from on-premises servers?
