Image Link doesn't work in Report builder

  • I have created an iMage link in a query
    Sample :
    SELECT
    EmpID
    ,LinkName = '\\abc\xyz\employeePictures+'=CONCAT(EmpID , '.jpg')
    FROM ABC

    If I copy paste the link in a browser it works just fine . But when I go to report builder and add an image in a table as an external image and select Link .It comes up with

    a thumbnail (red X)
    Also tried the database option using MMEType - JPEG. Still the same.

    Anyone had this issue and can suggest ?

    Thanks

    Do you have an unattended execution account setup? One that has access to the image? That could be what you are running into.
