Updating Images in a PowerBI Dashboard

[Anonymous]

I am trying to add an image to a PowerBI Dashboard in the Desktop Version that will update when the dashboard is updated. 

The image is an online image that is automatically updated hourly (it's a weather guage), but I am trying to get PowerBI to go back to the web address to publish the newest version of the image on a regular basis. 

Any suggestions?

The dashboard you mentioned is the report in Power BI Desktop?

The image you mentioned is stored as image url in Power BI Desktop?

Do you want to refresh the image hourly in Power BI Service?

Best Regards,

The dashboard was built in PowerBI Desktop, and the images were entered using the "Add Image" and using the URL of the image online that does update regularly. 

The dashboard is uploaded to the PowerBI Service online, and I would like for the image to update regularly throughout the day.

Thanks.
