Hi fellow developers!
I am finishing my custom Power BI visual and I can´t succesfully load pictures into the custom visual from the local files (using assets folder). I am sending the image with the error (you can see that there is this "image missing" symbol) .
Basicaly I declared image as SVGElement. I created it in construct method as image. And in update method I tried to join path with xlink:href. The visual works in that way, that "image" is shown in Power BI online in correct place, but actual image is not loaded you can see only that error. I expect error in path, code, security or some settings that I dont know.
I read previous comments in community. I would highly appreciate any help from more experienced developers. Thank you!
Snipets of my code from visual.ts

Hi!
This article does not help me to find answer to my problem. I need to import a picture PNG or SVG file from local folder. Picture like companys logo.
However the article was super informative, and I thank you for that. I will use this reference in my future project!
However problem still open.
