Hello,
I created an aplication in Power Apps connected to SQL for info and to Azure Blob for photos. I want to display photo in pbi from Azure Blob but are blur and the max dimension for every photo is 32700. Can i create an URL or something like this from Blob to display photos in pbi?
From blob, photos are binary and i transform them in 64 base and show as Image URL (from data category) . The maximum number of characters of each photo is 32.766 characters. As i know, Power BI allows a maximum string length of 32.766 characters in a column. In the case of a large image, if the string contains more than 32,766 characters, it truncates the rest of the characters. I think PBI automatically restricts the number of characters and make the images blur
No, that's not likely the issue. There are ways to stitch larger images back together.

I know Chris' method but PBI automatically restricts my number of characters to 32766.
That's why he is chunking it at 30000.
the max dimension for every photo is 32700
Not sure what you mean by that. Please elaborate. What are the width and height of the images?
