Power BI : Showing image in slicer visual


I have been following this link to show images in visuals. Currently, it works for table visual (converting image into base64 text and modelling the column as Image URL format). However, I like to show image in Slicer visual.

Idea is to show image in Slicer to filter data in Matrix visual data which are available on same page. I have achieved to filter matrix visual by showing data as List view & Horizontal Orientation in slicer visual. But how to show image in slicer visual?

Any idea or clue are highly appreciated.


Solution

  • The standard Power BI slicer doesn't support images to enable selection by that method. The 3rd party Chiclet Slicer does. It will support it via direct url, or you can wrap the base 64 image in a url(ish) for example.

    <img src=”data:image/jpg;base64,/9j/4QuLRXhpZgAATU………r3v3Xuve/de697917r//Z”/>
