Power BI using image url from office 365

I have a report that gets a profile image from outlook.office365.com, but a reprot on powerbi.microsoft.com.

When I load the url image, it does not find the profile image, from the url, becuase my Power BI user does not log into or use Office 365 - can I get Power BI to log into Office 365 as an unathenticated user, when the report is used?

The image url is based on: 

https://outlook.office365.com/owa/service.svc/s/GetPersonaPhoto?email=<User's work email account>&UA=0&size=HR<Size>

The data source is Direct Query on SQL, but I think that is all you should need to know?

@paulmcoan, I don't think so it is possible.

 

I would suggest, keep the images in a place where you don't require security credentials to access the image file.
