Advocate IINot displaying image in New Card Visual on Power BI Service
Hi bao_phan,
The behaviour you are experiencing is due to the fact that the New Card visual is currently in preview and, at present, is supported only in Power BI Desktop.
For more information regarding the New Card visual and its limitations, you may refer to the official documentation at the following link:

Hi bao_phan,
We sincerely appreciate your query on the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.
Based on my understanding, the issue appears to be related to how Power BI processes image sources. Images embedded locally or through base64 encoding are not supported in visuals such as the New Card when the report is published to the Power BI Service.
We recommend the following approach, which may help in resolving the issue:
-
Use Web-hosted Image URLs.Upload the image to a publicly accessible location, such as SharePoint Online, OneDrive, or Azure Blob Storage. Then, use the image URL in the visual’s formatting settings. This ensures that the image renders correctly on the Power BI Service.

Was this a recent change? I've been using Base64 images for half a year in multiple reports and only this month has service displayed something different. My situation is a little different, it displays the base 64 text in service and the actual image in the desktop version. When I try with images hosted in sharepoint it gives me this image.
