If you create a Power View report in Excel, you can upload that datamodel and report into Power BI. The images in your Power View report can be pinned to your dashboard as well.... Or at least that is how I put pictures there. I guess there will be some easier way as well with new features coming out.
3 things to point out:
Hi,
the only way I know of is via a SQL Server table and a Power Pivot model.
1 -Create a table to store your images with a column of varbinary(max) type.
2 - In PowerPivot on the Advanced tab choose the appropriate data category.
now you should be able to use images for visualization
Cheers
