Google Forms uplaod picture in Power BI

[msarfaraz]

Hi All,

I have created a contact list in google forms and response excel sheet connected to Power BI, my problem the pictures which uploaded on google form are not showing in Power BI

I attached both screenshot or Power BI and link of the picture, any advice.

Hi,

You probably need to select this data field (see "Fields" on the right-hand side), and then go to Column Tools > change Data category to Image URL. That should do the trick.

Hi, It doesn't work.

Ahh I just noticed your URL is referencing google drive path, not the picture itself.

Please see the link to documentation -> Display images in a table, matrix, or slicer in a report
According to this, the image URL needs to point to an image in one of these file formats: .bmp, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png, or .svg

Is there any chance to modify your URL so that it ends with one of these extensions? e.g.:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e0/SNice.svg/1200px-SNice.svg.png

Feel free to copy this URL into one of your contact fields to test if everything else is set up properly (i.e. datatype, visualization fields).
