New Button Slicer - how to add image stored on sahrepoint or onedrive

Hi,

 

I am trying to add an image to my new button slicer. Image is stored on sharepoint or one drive (I tried both).

When I add image URL to a measure and then add a measure to Image, it is not visible on button slicer.

 

I know that if you strore an image on dropbox you need to modify the image url so it could work but I have not found any tip for images stored in sharepoint or onedrive. 

Does anyone know how to use it?

Have you tried viewing it in the web service? SharePoint-stored images are not visible in the desktop app. I haven't tried them in the button slicer, though.

No I have not tried in the service. I need it to work in Desktop.
I managed to upload the image from dropbox but I still cannot find a way to use the files that I keep in shared folders (OneDrive or Sharepoint) which is strange in my opinion. 

I also tried to use a image stored in sharepoint/onedrive. I tried to copy the link from sharepoint online, but i doesn't work.

 

On this youtube video you will find a way to use images stored in dropbox: Minute 11:58

SharePoint/OneDrive images will not work in the desktop app. I think it's something to do with it not handling the authentication locally.
