There is a 4th option. Convert the image to base64 and you can store the image in the database. If the images are sensitive information like pages in a pdf. (If the pdf you want uploaded is to large for pdfviewer. ) you will be able to place rls on it as well as make a larger file. Just have a slicer for pages/page name on the row and place the base 64 image string as a image url. My client wanted 30 page PDFs visible in powerbi, so I did it this way.

I always recommend your channel to colleagues needing help.

This is the easy bit though Patrick. The hard part in Power BI is displaying the images correctly for Size.
Use the image in a table and it is too small with very poor control over scaling (one size almost fits all) and using in a card looks better but now cannot adjust other items such as column with

Niiiice video, as expected from you guys (in a cube).
Quick question: how to get images from sharepoint online? Especially about images that are attached on an item from a Sharepoint List...

This vídeo was very helpful for me! I've also tried to decode de image inside the PowerBi but did not work! So with your video I could use the Azure Blob Storage!! I really appreciate your help! And what a amasing vídeo!!! Congrats!!!!

Hi Patrick! Great material.
Is there any option to use confidential images in report? Let's imagine a case where I would have pictures of employees and I am not allowed to make them publicly accessible. Is there any scenario for such a case?

Thanks Patrick for showing the Azure blog configuration.

Great video. Method #4 Use the "Enlighten World Flag Slicer" which worked like a dream for me (when being used as an image visual, rather than a slicer).
I could not force the Sort Order when it was being used as a Slicer which is a problem for me, maybe I missed something.

Thanks for this. Incredibly timely! I am writing a report that must display different branding depending on the user choice of product. :-)

[akhilannan]

I think we don't need a calculated column here right? A measure can also be categorized as Image URL I assume.

[laurosoto]

Thanks man 3 years to late, but still it help me a lot !

Hi Patrick
What about Image as a background in a report ? what top 10 visual do you suggest ?

[wmfexcel]

Thanks for the video.
It will be great if we can use images in a "shared" folder within organization.
