Workaround url without http

Hi All,

 

I still have an urgent requirement to have an url without the http//

We need this to open navision window from our powerbi reports.

The url looks like this //navision//...

We did this in SAS VA which works fine, unforuntately this is not possible in PowerBI 😞

In 2016 there was an idea raised for it and a lot more people has the same requirements: 

https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/14829570-hyperlinks-without-http?page=1&per_page=20

 

Questions I have:

- when will ideas get picked up by Microsoft, estimation of the aboce?

- Is there a workaround or a custom visual which will do the trick?

 

Best Regards,

Patrick Posthuma

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    try the HTML Viewer

    https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA104381214?flightCodes=PandaDocToCRM&tab=Reviews

     

    Your column value should look something like this.

    <a href="dynamicsnav://navserver.intra:7246/navprod/CRONUS%20AG/runpage?page=XXX"> NAV Link </a>

    Hi , Anonymous 

     

    Suggestions and votes with the most votes will be given priority in the plan.

    If you want make this feature coming sooner, you can motivate people around you to vote for the proposal.

     

    For your second question, I’m afraid  that there is no suitable solution  to achieve it now.

    You can also follow some recent Power Bi function plans in real time here:
