Is it possible to use a SharePoint Image Library in PowerPoint for organization assets?

I have a collection of images that need to be distributed throughout the organization, and I want to ensure the content is accessible to any user signed in to our O365 tenant right within PowerPoint. I plan to store them in a SharePoint Online Image Library. Is this possible with SharePoint? If so, how?

    Is there any update on this, we have just set up an org asset library, and it would be great to be able to be able to use the images in Word and PowerPoint as well as Sharepoint.

    Please implement this. It is possible on PowerPoint Web version but not Desktop version. It is stupid to have a Library with corporate stock photos which we can not use in PowerPoint (or every other Office App) Desktop.

    rehtsetwhat you are trying to do here is using the Organization assets in the Powerpoint it is not possible as PowerPoint comes with three options for pictures.... which are uploading images from this computer, Stock images and online images which is from the internet where the stock images is the best one as all of the images are from Microsoft different sources

     

    here is more details about stock images.... https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/insert-images-icons-and-more-in-microsoft-365-c7b78cdf-2503-4993-8664-851085c30fce but Organizations assets are totally different which can be only used on Sharepoint sites only.

      PDostiyar, thanks for the information. Sad day, and kind of surprising since Office 365 is so beautifully interconnected in other respects.

       

      For anyone interested, I found https://powerpoint.uservoice.com/forums/288949-powerpoint-for-windows-desktop-application/suggestions/38419387-insert-picture-from-sharepoint-or-company-onedrive regarding this very feature. Feel free to vote so we can make this feature a reality!
