Display SharePoint Images to Users without Access
Hi ksoukup ,
According to this link: Add images, videos, and more to your dashboard - Power BI | Microsoft Docs it appears that you can't have any credentials required for the image file. I based that on this sentence: "
- Make sure security credentials aren't required to access the image file. For example, because OneDrive and SharePoint require authentication, images stored there can't be added to a dashboard this way."
Based on that I am not sure it will work for you to have the images without full permissions. But, that doesn't explain why you can see them....other than maybe you are an admin or owner in both?
I was able to make this work using the approach outlined by Chris Webb in his blog post.

Thanks collinq. I will need to find a different way to store these images so they can be shared externally.
