People and user icons for Power BI

People icons stand for headcount, customers and users. HR pages, customer analytics and product usage reports use them to label counts of humans rather than of transactions.

Using people & users icons in Power BI

Where people & users icons earn their place in a report, and how to keep them readable.

Single-person icons label one role or one user; group icons label counts. A 'Customers' card with a single-person icon undersells what the number means.

Avoid gendered figures unless the data is about gender. Neutral silhouettes keep an HR report inclusive and stop readers inferring something the data doesn't say.

Power BI tip: For a 'new vs returning' split, use two people icons with a plus and a refresh modifier; in a table, set their column width to 32 px and turn off word wrap so rows line up.

Good uses

  • Headcount and FTE cards
  • Active users and customers KPIs
  • Team or org-unit tables

    Pick and colour

    Choose one of the people & users icons below and set its colour to match your theme.

    SVG or PNG for Image visuals and button icons; the DAX measure or data URI for tables, matrices and cards; theme icon JSON for conditional formatting.

  3. 03

    Bind it in Power BI

    For a measure, set Measure tools → Data category to Image URL. For theme icons, import the theme and choose the icon in Conditional formatting → Icons.

Want the icon next to a formatted value with a target colour? The free DAX SVG measure builder draws icon + value cards, and the conditional formatting icons recipe walks through custom icon sets end to end.

Questions about these icons

Can I use these people & users icons in commercial Power BI reports?

Yes. They come from open-source sets under the MIT or ISC licence (25 from Lucide, 24 from Tabler Icons, 7 from Heroicons, 24 from Fluent UI System Icons), which allow commercial use. Keep the licence notice when you redistribute the icon files themselves; the full texts are on the licence page. Licence texts · licence file (.txt)

Why does my DAX icon show as text?

The measure's Data category must be Image URL (Measure tools → Data category). Also check that every # in the SVG is written as %23, which the copied measure already does.
