Hi Janaam,

 

Power BI won’t make any modifications to the web urls imported into it for they are text type data imported into Power BI. As you can see, here is a web url containing “:” and  it works well when clicking on the link. (Test with Chrome and Microsoft Edge)

 

 

This issue is caused by how the browser parse the URL. If input a url like http://file://test.html, it will be handled as the second screenshot showed.

 

 

Best Regards,
