Hi Everyone, I have just checked that if we provide a local path of image to Power BI, it doesn't render image in the visual.I have tried this on Image by Cloudscope visual. My dataset looks like below:Timestamp Image URL11/27/17 12:30:46D:\Projects\Images\5b346ccd0081ca3a2040a4ba_faceRecognition_1530168233925.jpg11/27/17 12:30:50D:\Projects\Images\5b346ccd0081ca3a2040a4ba_faceRecognition_1530168238075.jpg11/27/17 12:30:54D:\Projects\Images\5b346ccd0081ca3a2040a4ba_faceRecognition_1530168242178.jpg11/27/17 12:30:59D:\Projects\Images\5b346ccd0081ca3a2040a4ba_textRecognition_1530168257121.jpg11/27/17 12:31:03D:\Projects\Images\5b346ccd0081ca3a2040a4ba_textRecognition_1530168261252.jpg In Modellling tab, I selected Data Category as Image URL for my ImageURL column also.

I have found the answer.In case someone drops by to this issue, you need to host the folder in which you have images on IIS.Thats it. Prateek Raina

Reference Local Image URL in the visual

Hi Everyone,

I have just checked that if we provide a local path of image to Power BI, it doesn't render image in the visual.

I have tried this on Image by Cloudscope visual.

My dataset looks like below:

Timestamp Image URL

11/27/17 12:30:46	D:\Projects\Images\5b346ccd0081ca3a2040a4ba_faceRecognition_1530168233925.jpg
11/27/17 12:30:50	D:\Projects\Images\5b346ccd0081ca3a2040a4ba_faceRecognition_1530168238075.jpg

In Modellling tab, I selected Data Category as Image URL for my ImageURL column also. But it doesn't work.

Can anyone let me know any workaround for this?
