Sharing Dataverse Images in a Shared Power BI Report

[Garbo62]

Hi

We have a Power BI report, linked to a Dataverse source. We have created a generic account (Paid for Pro licence) for sharing the report. When I share the report to external personel the can see the data, but no Images, which are critical to the report.

Any ideas on how to make images visible, My Dataverse/Power BI knowledge is basic.

Hi @Garbo62 

When you add the image column from dataverse to power bi, it will be displayed as a text column.

You can  try to create a custom column in power query and add your Company Dataverse URL (This can be found in the datasource settings within BI) before the image path, you can refer to the following link.

Dataverse Image - Microsoft Power BI Community

After add the custom column, then apply it and transfer its data type as a URL column, you can refer to the following link.

And you can refer to the following video, it may can also provide some suggestion.
