Directly display a base64 image in SSRS from a custom assembly.
Hello,
i have a custom assembly, loaded in SSRS, who execute a http request to a web service and return a string of a base64 image.
I want to first know if it's possible to display directly a base64 image in SSRS Without going through a database ?
I try different expression in image properties but my image never displays.
I tested "Embedded" and "External" image source
I tested by simplifying to the maximum without using custom assemblies, but by writing a simple function in the code tab of SSRS which contains a base64 img, calling it in an expression, but the problem persists.
You're welcome for the clarification.
return a string of a base64 image.Raphael75 , you already wrote it, it returns a Base64 string, not binary image, which could be presented in a SSRS report.
And you can not use .NET functions in an expression. Your customer assembly has to convert the string to a valid image.
