When Image is not found show a sample text

Hi Team,

 

I have a Image URL in my report. When there is no image returned from this URL, how can i add some text to it.

 

For example, if i have to show employee photo, when there is no photo available for a particular employee, it should show the initials of his name.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    For PowerBI Desktop, it is possible to insert a picture through a URL, but it is impossible to determine whether there is content in this url. Therefore, it is impossible to set the corresponding text for the pictures that cannot be loaded.

     

    If you have any doubts about inserting pictures, you can refer to the following blog, I hope this can help you.

     

    Best Regards,
    Henry
