vector graphics in MS VSTS Wiki

Using the latest online version from VSTS.

Is it somehow possible to use vector graphics in the vsts wiki?

I know I can't upload a .svg as attachment (only png, jpeg and gif) but is there any other approach?
In the end, it is just static file serving. Using markdown, I can use any url to a public .svg and the image gets rendered correctly using the VSTS wiki. But I can't upload the graphic on my own. Also it has to be uploaded inside VSTS, a public file hosting location is not allowed. My Idea was to upload the vector graphic inside the code section and inside the wiki to reference to the corresponding .svg. But I cannot or simply don't know how to get the full url to the .svg. Any hints for that?

You can use the markdown for image syntax (![Text](URL)) to show vector graphics on wiki page (but the xml format hass not been supported yet).

While to get the url for a local .svg file, you need to hosted .svg file to a place with http protocol supported. But it seems there has no free site to hosted .svg files. And you can also refer the post free and convenient svg hosting.
