how to add images from a sharepoint folder into power bi

Hi everyone
I'm trying to import images from my sharepoint folder into power bi and I can't see the images in desktop not in the service.
The url shows me the image on the browser but if I try a private window it doesn't show the image and asks me to log in.

This is my first line of pq:

SharePoint.Contents("https://mf1-my.sharepoint.com/personal/v_c_mf1", [ApiVersion = 15])

 

This way I can navigate to the folder where images are.

 

Can anyone please help me?
Thank you all in advance
Best regards

This will not work in most cases for CORS reasons.  One (safe) alternative is to embed the images in the Power BI dataset.
