Images not loading in Chiclet slicers
Can you share at least one image link?
I just want to double check that link is correct.

Hello everyone,
I ran into same problem and found the fix.
The free icons are not easy to find. I used flaticon.com. Now for PBI to display the icon on chiclet slicer you need to provide the embedded html information as below. However, most icon websites do not give you this option readily on the surface unlike icons8.com.
Fix is following
A. Choose your icon from the website.
B. I use Mozilla Firefox. So once you go to the icon page do the following
From the top menu, select Tools > Web Developer > Page Source
B. look for img src. The embedded html can be found there. Copy paste the embedded html and put that as the URL on the icon dataset and PBI does the rest of the magic.

This link works well for me.
Could you please open your report with ?unmin=true (https://app.powerbi.com/?unmin=true) flag and share log from browser's developers tools?

Does the image show up whenever you publish the report? Have you tried changing the data category of the URL column to 'Web URL'?

Hi there, many thanks for the response back.
Sorry I neglected to mentioned I did set to use url, and have tried publishing and image still does not load.
I did try another PBi visual, named Image Grid, and I am still experiencing the same issue. I feel it is more a user error on my end.
