URL image isnt displaying from a sharepoint list

Hi, I have connected data from a sharepoint list where we have got a column to select people within the organisation. 

Im Power BI I have expanded the column and selected the profile image which is displayed as a url. When this is in the table or visual though this is only displaying as an image icon. 

 

I have changed the Data category to Image URL? What am I doing wrong? 

 

 

Any help appriciated

    When you want to desplay Image you have to change it to Image URL from WebURL

      VijayP  Yes I have selected ImageURL, I added the WebURL too so you could see what I was connecting to.

        Cbutler Your data category should be Image URL which is what you have selected in your data. Please check if URL is working fine as there might be some special character causing URL not to work. Even if you share your PBIX file with us we may not have access to the images to test it out at our end.
