Using filter settings for the data source (such as account/page name or time zone, for example) in Looker Studio (formerly Data Studio) can sometimes display images or ad creatives as URLs. Find out more in the "Images and data control" section of this Google article.

By deactivating filter settings, you can display images or ad creatives - rather than URLs - in Looker Studio tables.

Instructions

1 Open your report in Looker Studio.

2.click on the graphic to which you wish to add images.

Select the required image field under Available fields.

If the only available field is "Ad creative image URL", follow these steps to convert URLs to images:

1. In the sidebar, click on the link icon next to the URL field of the ad creative image to open its attributes.

2. Click on the Type drop-down menu.

3. At the bottom of the list, click on URL.

4. Click on Image.

Troubleshooting

- If the URL cannot be converted to an image, check that the URL points to an image and not a web page. URLs that are not links to images cannot be converted to images.

- Bear in mind that image URLs expire due to limitations defined by the data source server. Expired image URLs cannot be converted to images.
