Hi Cherry, 

 

That problem is solved - I just created a seperate column for ID and used that instead. However, the actual image won't show up on the filter, just the image URL. I have tried several URLS with the same result.  Here is a link to a dummy version of the file: https://app.box.com/s/eouqtyk37ipoainxg6xoyms2q9ybff15 

 

Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

    Hi hcdecon,

     

    Please change the Date category of the image url measure to be image URL.

     

     

    In addtion, images work for URL that over web not local path in Power BI Desktop.

     

    Best Regards,
