I have setup a Power BI which has an image stored on Sharepoint (Using Sharepoint Folder as the data source in Power BI). These are images of the questions in a learning so the subject owner can review efficacy of the training - and lovely as text is, we all know pictures are better - especially when the questions are about pictures. So this is set up with a relational link between the questions/students' answers and the image of the question in the training.
It WORKS in the web interface, but we generally use Teams to deliver Power BI Dashboards and when I try to load it into Teams, the image(s) don't load at all. It just shows a blank space. Is there another option that would allow me to have a dynamic image source AND work via Teams?

Hi @LMSReportsHelp ,
Please have a try.
Ensure that the SharePoint image URLs are accessible without the need for authentication. Images must be anonymously accessible.
Verify that all users who need to view the images in Teams have the necessary permissions on the SharePoint site where the images are stored.
The image needs to be in one of these file formats: .bmp, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png, or .svg

Does it have to be 100% annoymous? Our company Sharepoint files are available to everyone who has teams (AD authentication). Or does it have to be "publicly available" regardless of the fact that if they have teams, they definitely have access to Sharepoint?
