SVG Calculated Columns in Power BI Table Visual — Export Shows Raw SVG URL Instead of Data Value
- 5 months ago
Hi subu_das,
This is a core design limitations of Power BI. While in Power BI it renders and generates the SVG image but while you download it's downloaded text hence images are conerted to text instead of images.
What you can do it by instead of providing the download option (Disable header Icons) on the main table (Which is using SVG images), you can provide a toggle or a button which can change the visual to a downloadable version (Using Bookmarks). in this downloadable table replce the column (SVG images) with some other column (Status) which has text, and then user can downlaod it from there with correct statuses.

Hello,
How can i accept it as solution when it is not full proof.
Due to AI agent and stuff we can do many things with Deneb, SVG and custom visuals but still export data functionality doesn't work.

Hi subu_das ,
As grazitti_sapna correctly stated, export will always return the underlying value, so SVG will come out as text. There is no workaround to override export behaviour in Microsoft Power BI. This means no approach, whether SVG, Deneb, custom visuals, DAX or bookmarks will give you pill style visuals and clean native export in the same column. You either keep the SVG for UI and accept export won’t be usable or provide a separate export friendly version (bookmark/second table). There isn’t a fully seamless solution today.
If this gap is important for your scenario, the only path for a fix at the product level is by raising it in Microsoft Fabric Ideas . Microsoft observes these requests regularly and may implement them as features in future.
