## Power BI: Linking Images to Your Reports

### What’s Inside?

Learn how to link progress images to a project schedule and display them dynamically in Power BI. The process involves:

- **Assigning Activity Codes** – Assign activity codes to tasks in Primavera P6 (e.g., shaft work, tunnel work, pipe work).
- **Exporting Data to Excel** – The project schedule, including activity codes, is copied into a provided Excel template.
- **Uploading Images to Google Drive** – Progress images are stored in a Google Drive folder and renamed to match activity codes. Public sharing is enabled, and links are copied into the Excel sheet.
- **Preparing Data for Power BI** – The Excel file is imported into Power BI. Necessary data transformations (e.g., setting headers, formatting dates) are applied.
- **Linking Tables in Power BI** – Relationships are established between activity codes and images for dynamic filtering.
- **Visualizing Images in Power BI** – A custom visual for displaying images is added, and a slicer is created to filter images based on activity selection.
