I want to show images in a table.
I have the binary text stored in sql server.
I tried to import in a Olap Tabular and change the binary to text to convert it to BASE64 but this will not work cause the text is too big to be stored in one cell.
i tried to write a measure to concatenate rows but Live Connection Does not support Measure Category for me to set that as a ImageURL.
Is there any way to show offline images using live connection?
Solved! Go to Solution.
The Thing is they are too large and i can't Use Azure blob storage cause the report is on a machine with no internet access, I finally did it using a local HTTP server using python
