How to add images to Reports

To successfully add images to reports, it is essential that the report definition uses the Image Proxy, instead of attempting to refer to the image network location.

Step 1.   Ensure the Image Proxy Setup is complete

Step 2.   Edit a report with MS Report Builder

Step 3.   Compose a query selecting the file path normally, e.g., tblAssetDoc.Address

Step 4.   Right-click on the image field to edit the Image Properties

Step 5.   Click on the formula button to change the Expression on the Use this image section

 

Step 6.   Wrap the Address field with the following expression:
Code.ToImageURL( )

 

Step 7.   Save and upload the new report definition using the Report Manager

Things to be aware of:

The function used on the expression is not available to debug and troubleshoot reports on the MS Report Builder. It is a feature of Conquest and is only available after the report is uploaded.
