pinned image on dashboard

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have pinned a tile which contains an image from a report onto a dashboard in power bi.. and now when I or anyone i share the report with clicks on that image, it re-directs to the report page. How do I remove this hyperlink option from the dashboard tile?

Also, is there any way to upload an image from one's local drive on the dashboard directly. I only find option of adding images via URL and not local drive.

Thanks!

Hello Everyone, 

I am looking the same thing in my dashboard. Did we find the way to disable the click on image in dashboard.

Thank in advance.

@Anonymous Click on the '...' on the upper right of the tile. Click on the pencil icon. Check the "Select Custom Link" box. Input the URL of the dashboard. This will change it so that when the user selects the image tile, it will go nowhere.

The image needs to be hosted on a webserver somewhere... The Service can't access your local drive. This is why images from a local source work in the desktop, but break when you publish them to the Service.

Thanks @Seth_C_Bauer

Yes, that works. But people have shared dashboards with me and their image doesn't even have the option to click (i.e. the hand cursor). Any thoughts on how you think that is possible? (yes in parallel I will reach out to the people who shared me the dashboard as well) 🙂

@Anonymous I can't say I've seen that behavior. Sorry, don't know the answer to the hand vs. cursor.
