Image Hosting for Dashboard Image Tiles

Lookinf for recommendations on hosting image files to be used in dashboard tiles both image tiles and web content tiles. Prefer something anyone inthe company can get to but not completely public. Referecning links from images on sharepoint don't seem to work as the URL in the image tile.

Any recommendations appreciated.

Thanks

    Hi m-colbert ,

    So far ,to my knowledge, your requirement could be realized currently. if you want to add a image to a Dashboard, 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. Also, images can't be in .svg format.

    For more details, you can read related document: Add images, videos, and more to your dashboard - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

    I understand that I cannot use SharePoint as there are no public facing sites. I am however looking for suggestions that others have used to host images for this purpose. For example, someone mentioned in another post to use ImgBB — Upload Image — Free Image Hosting. Anyone willing to share there experience for this purpose is greatly appreciated.
