Problem with Images in PowerBI
Hi everybody,
I have tried to import icons to my dashboard, since I have weather conditions in my reports. I have been following instructions from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWLXANXnIlQ
After everyting was done, my dashboard displays the images like this:
I have already checked, links are good, data type is set to the Image URL and there is a connection with other data, so I cant really tell what is the problem here...
Also, size of the icons is 128x128, so maybe they are too big for this purpose?
Any suggestion is kindly appreciated :)
Right, it seems you're using the link address to the image. You'll need to use the image address instead.
So in this case a url for example would look like https://i.imgur.com/zZSCoTA.png.

Hi,
Is it possible you could post the URL of one of the images you're trying to display?

Hi Tahreem24,
Thank you for your reply. I have also downloaded the working file from the video and everything is working for me too.
I cant export everything due to data sensitivity, but here are the most important parts:
