Add Http:// to a link address if its missing?

Hi everyone,

 

I have URLs that start with stssyn:// which is not compatible with power bi to show this as a hyperlink. Example:

Is there a way to force these links that don't have https to add the http:// in at the start so power bi recognises them as valid links? 

 

Regards,

 

Matthew

@Matthew77 ,
Your URLs must start with all the below prefix in order to work in PBI. This is the screen shot from Microsoft doc and I am attaching SS and link for your reference.

OR Try to deploy your URL's or it's contents to this mentioned Prefix websites. (if possible)

 

 

Don't forget to give thumbs up and accept this as a solution if it helped you!!!

Please take a quick glance at newly created dashboards : Restaurant Management Dashboard , HR Analytics Report , Hotel Management Report, Sales Analysis Report , Fortune 500 Companies Analysis , Revenue Tracking Dashboard

Hi @Matthew77 ,

 

You may try to use "Replace values" in Power Query:
