Hi @Anonymous ,

 

By userid, do you mean the currently logged in userid? You can use USERPRINCIPALNAME() which returns the email used in accessing the report. If the userid is not the same as the user email then you must have a table with the userid and the corresponding account email and then create a measure similar to below and categorize it to Web URL

 

hyperlink =
VAR _UPN =
    USERPRINCIPALNAME ()
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        SELECTEDVALUE ( usertable[userid] ),
        FILTER ( usertable, usertable[user email] = _UPN )
    )
