Looker Studio is one of the best ways to create your reports, but finding every feature to get the best of it can take time and effort.
One simple but useful feature is to display images from a URL. You can display products from a catalog or visual ads from your marketing campaigns, making it easier to identify flaws and successes.
In this example, I will use a Facebook Ads account connected with our Facebook Ads connector in a newly created report.

First, we need to use the right charts. Images will only be displayed on tables.
Select a table by going on Add a Charts, then Table (you can pick any of the three suggested). Place it in the report:
In the Set-up column, select the dimensions containing a URL. It can be in type Text or URL.
Tips: You can order by Type in the data source fields list, making it easier to check for field-type URLs or Text.
Do it like this :
Now that your dimension is added, click on the URL symbol next to the dimension name (if your dimension is a text, click on ABC). Then, in Data Type, change from Text to URL -> Image.
Note that a too-large number of images can take a while to be displayed. If you get an error, try to reduce the period asked.
If you want a clickable link instead of an image, you can select the type URL -> URL.
Change the size of the images:
You can enlarge the Images column to get bigger images. But you will be limited by the maximum size of the picture.
