Display Database Stored Images

Publiseringsdato: Feb 19, 2026
Beskrivelse
When connected to a database containing image data, the images do not display in Tableau Desktop.

Cause

The ability to reference and display stored image from a database in Tableau Desktop is not currently built into the product.
Løsning
As a possible workaround, one of the following strategies may allow the images to be displayed.
 
  1. Host the images online and store the URLs in the database, and then use either image roles (available in Tableau Desktop 2022.4 or later), or a dashboard web object to display the URLs
  2. Import the image into Tableau Desktop, or reference it via a URL, for use as a background image
  3. Drop all the images in the \My Tableau Repository\Shapes folder and display them as custom shapes
