Power BI: 3 Minute Tips - Dynamically Set Images with Image Viewer

In this Power BI tutorial, we learn how to use the Image Viewer custom visual that allows us to dynamically set images in our report! Changing images based on slicer selections will add a whole new layer of functionality to any report you build.

Hi, great video. Would you know how to show a visual upon slicer click? Thanks!

[yerkovaldovinosluvinoff]

What if I want to show an image from a table (filtering). I tried and didnt work...

[HansenHerald]

This is great! thank you! Is there a way to HIDE an image if a value not there using this technique? I have a phase arrow and am trying to drop a pin in the phase where we are currently...so I want to have 6 pins across the phases, but hide 5 and show the one they selected (for example, in the "design and solution" phase)

I need one help/ If I get the image URL from the sharepoint(company internal) rather then the Web it is not working. DO you know why? Is there any limitation for this visual?

[notwatchingthis]

Hi. Great video, although there is one part of this that I have been having issues with which I hope you may be able to help with. Some of my pictures are too big for the small area of the report I have reserved for product pictures. So I only get a partial picture displayed, this seems to happen in your basketball example where the bottom section is not displayed. Is there a way to make it so, no matter how big the visual is, the full picture is displayed?

Hi, i have a invoicing Dashboard and i want to show some confetti if the month target get completed. Its possible to use IF with dynamic gifs ?

[ketanbutte]

Hi, how can i show .png images which are present locally in machine? i know this can be done using matplotlib using python scripts but want to know powerbi way of doing it.

always learn new thing from your channel awesome

What about instead of a slicer, a measure? Essentially, if profit is greater than 0 show a green arrow, else a red arrow. Needs to be a png or base64 image.

[Nevaanpatnaik-zx-v]

I have a similar question. Can you please help!

[msoffice]

Very interesting, but when I do same steps my Power BI doesn't show images... what can be a problem, could you, please, help? (I try to use images from Google Drive)

[pabloaschieri]

Hi! Congrats for the video, very easy to use. In mi case I have 3 .svg images because Im also using the Synoptic Panel. Will it work? Or it has to be only URL. Thanks!

[cosikvendetta]

It is good, but not perfect. There should be dummy image when there is no selection.

[dantemiranda]

Baaah, terrible workaround. Power BI needs to have Js and CSS features.
