How can I import image url from box.com domain url to PowerBI report Builder?

Hi,

 

I'm trying to use image from a domain url via box.com to import into my paginated report. Unfortunately, the image is not reflecting when I use the image url and it does not run into error.

Can someone assist me whether it is due to restrictions or security measures which is in place, that I might encounter issues?

How can I resolve this?

 

Thank you.

Hi. I'm not a paginated report expert, but thinking about power bi, if you want a Image URL to work on the canvas, there are two things to consider in Desktop.

1- The link to the picture must be a public image address.

2- The column containing the url must be categorized as "image url". ( I'm not sure if there is something similar al paginated reports)

I guess it should be similar with Report Builder like it's with Power Bi Desktop.

Consider that the only way of using private URLs is with sharepoint if the logged user has access to the picture.

I hope that helps,
