How do you display an image from a shared folder in a straight table?

Hi everyone, this is driving me crazy. It seems like a simple thing but I'm not succeeding. I would just like to display images contained in a network folder in a table.
The network folder is
a) accessible from the Qlik Sense server
b) accessible by the Qlik Sense service user

I tried these formats:

file://[Server name]/[Image Path] \\[Server name]\[Image Path]

Nothing.
Does anyone know what the right format is and if it's possible?

Hi,

Try this,

='file:///' & replace([Image Path], '\', '/')

This expression adds ‘file:///’ to the start of the image path and replaces all backslashes with forward slashes. This is necessary because Qlik Sense expects the image URL in this format.

Also, remember to replace [Image Path] with the actual field name in your data that contains the image paths.
