Under the Add Image to Power BI Dashboard tile section, we have

  • Display Title and subtitle: Please checkmark this option to display the title and subtitle of an Image.
  • Title: Specify the title
  • Subtitle: Please provide the subtitle for it
  • URL: Please provide the Image URL.
Add Image tile URL, title, and subtitle 4

In this Power BI example, we want to insert the Stored Procedure Image from our website. So, let me use the same.

From the screenshot below, you can see the image in our Power BI dashboard.

Let me edit the Image tile.

As you can see from the screenshot below, it has a few more options inside it.

  • Set Custom Link: Please check mark this option to provide a custom link to this Image.
  • External Link: If you select this option, then you have to specify the Image URL
  • Link to a dashboard or report in the current workspace: If you select this option, then you have to select the dashboard or a report from the current workspace
  • URL: Please provide the external Image URL.

If you checkmark this Set Custom Link, the Image that we specified in our previous step remains the same. However, it creates a Hyperlink that links to another URL or another dashboard or Report.

Please provide a Valid URL 8

If you select Link to a dashboard or report in the current workspace option, you can use the Dropdown list to select the Report available in this workspace.

Choose the report from available dropdown list 9

For the Add Image to Power BI Dashboard demo purpose, we selected Link to a dashboard or report in the current workspace option and selected the fourth.

Choose the Report and Click Apply button 10

As you can see from the screenshot below, our Image remained the same. But, if you click on the image, it takes you to the Fourth Dashboard.

Let me click on the image we added to the Power BI dashboard.

Now you can see the Fourth dashboard.

Check the dashboard 12

This time, we selected the External link and added our POWER BI link as an External link.

Change the Link Type as External Link and Provide the URL 14

As you can see from the screenshot below, there is no change in our image. But, if you click on the image, it opens our web page.
