Hi, Images have to be served by a URL. Something like `![My-Image](https://example.com/image.png)` . I have personally not tried it from an co ordinating node. As long as you have access to the image( png) you should be able to embed it. There is a suggestion here that may help. > [@Load image with Markdown in Dashboard](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/load-image-with-markdown-in-dashboard/160174/2): > > file//usr/share/kibana/src/ui/public/image/image.png Unless you can open that file like that from your browser (and I would be really surprised if you could), it's not going to work. The path you put in there needs to load on its own for it to work right. src/ui/public isn't really the right place to drop files, that's where plugin code goes, and static files are not served from that path. In fact, I don't think there's any path that Kibana will serve static assets from. You'll need some oth… Hope this helps Thanks Rashmi --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/limitations-of-image-in-markdown-widget/221416)._
