Bubble layer symbols from content library

Hello together,

I try to create a Qlik Sense map report with a bubble layer. The bubbles should show some predefined symbols, which I uploaded to a self-created content library "icons" in the QMC.

Now I try to link to these symbols from the "Bubble Layer/Shape and Size/Image URL" configuration to show in the report.

But the image will not appear. Instead I get a green "standard" bubble.

Here the link methods I tried to input in the Image URL expression editor field:

UrlDescription
%RepositoryRoot%\Content\icons\reddot.pngas showed in the Location column of the content library
/content/icons/reddot.pngas showed in the URL path column of the content library
https://example.server.net:1443/content/icons/reddot.pngabsolute path which I got, when clicking on URL path column
RepositoryRoot%/Content/icons/reddot.pngjust to try slash instead of backslash

If uploading the image to some image hoster on the internet, the direct image link works.

Can you help?

Hi Andy,

It seems you are doing things correct, the images needs to reside on a server in order to be accessed. And you have changed Shape to "Symbols" under Appearance/ShapeAndSize.

- The only thing I can see might be missing is that the full Image URL needs to be in the path and starting with a ':

'https://www......./Qlik_logo-small.png
