Data Model Image (Binary) Support in Reports

[denglishbi1]

I was all excited today that I was finally able to get images (binary) files loaded into my power query in the Power BI Designer. This took a bit getting around the Privacy settings and bugs, but the latest release of the Power BI Designer made it possible. Unfortunately now that I have the binary data and images available in my model I can't do anything with them:'( I want to use them like I can in Power View for Tile By and Datacards... Help!!!

So, this idea has been posted here since March of 2015 and no response yet? We have images embedded in tables that we'd like to use, but we have to pull them out and put them on a separate web server in order to use them? That's worse than ridiculous. C'mon, Microsoft, you're better than this.

This would be very nice in power bi

This is really critical for image blobs. I have a case where employee pictures are stored in a database and I cannot use these on dashboard, which is just plain brain dead.
