Inserting fotographs

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone,

In a page I have a slicer with locations (specifically addresses) and I was wondering if it was possible to present an image according to the location I select.

Something like this would be very helpful since these locations are related to buildings, and that way someone that sees the report would know to which building the location refers.

Thanks in advance,

Daniela

The native way to do this would be with bookmarks(binding them to the action menu on a blank button). Ask me for more details if you wan't to pursue this method.

Another way would be via 3rd party visuals, you can try following this guide https://visualbi.com/blogs/microsoft/powerbi/dynamically-display-images-power-bi/

Hey @Anonymous 

you have to upload the images to a web store e.g. a blob storage container on Azure. Than you can create a table inside Power BI, one column contains the url starting with https://...

Make sure that the column that contains the link has the data category set to "image url"

This article describes this in more detail: https://radacad.com/get-images-from-web-page-into-the-power-bi-report-using-power-query

Hopefully this provides what you are looking for.

Tom
