Any way to render clickable hyperlink in a report?

Hello,

 

Is there any way to to add a calculated hyperlink column to my report, so when user click on the link , a browser instance pop up and shows a web page with more details? This idea would work very well with Dynamics CRM or SharePoint.

Via Power BI desktop i was able to formart a hyperlink i had stored in a table as a cliclable hyperlink data type. I was able to apply the same formating on a calculated column.

I am preparing a report using a datamodel that uses direct query (SQL), for me Data Category DDL is disabled.

 

In PowerBI Desktop, I can see only two sections,

1) Report - I see as below

2) Relationships  - I see as below

Any Clue on how to enable HyperLink for a Column?

Hi,

 

Has anyone able to accomplish this .I also have the same issue as @KKakireported. I'm connecting to data from SQL Azure Database. Unable to find the option to enable hyperlink.

 

As suggested in the latest documentation here , this may not be possible unless the data coming from the database has urls. But I dont have urls in the data.

 

Additionally , I also want to call a Javascript function on click of this hyperlink. Is this possible. 

 

Thanks.

HI,

I am new at this Power BI thing, and I need some help somewhere along the same lines as the person who initiated this message.

I am pulling Data from SQL and one of teh columns is teh path and filename to a file on my P drive (P:\CD PDF\BAS\BAS 1234.pdf.

 

How can I add a new column that would apply formula "Hyperlink(Col1)" to all the records from my query?

 

I tried typing "CDPDFLink = concatenate(concatenate("=hyperlink(",[CDPDF]),")")" and while it doesn't fail, it did not make my data a clickable hyperlink.

I also change the column data type into weburl and that didn't work either.

 

Any thoughts on how to accomplish this?

 

Thank you,

 

Julia.
