The Image Visual

Hi everyone. i just added a bunch of image visuals to my Power BI report. Each visual is a different image on my hard drive. How do I get the image file name associated with each visual? If I hover over the visual or image, or go into the image properties, it's not showing me the image name, Please advise. Thanks.

Hi @bvy ,

 

If you inserted the image here.

Then you can add Title or Alt text to the image to show the image name.

If you want to show the name of the image in the local path, you need to host the folder containing the image on IIS, and then you can intercept the image name in the path. You can refer to this solution: Solved: Reference Local Image URL in the visual - Microsoft Fabric Community

 

If your Current Period does not refer to this, please clarify in a follow-up reply.

Thank you but not quite what I'm asking. I need to access the properties of the image visual to tell me what image (file path and name) is currently loaded. How do I do that?
