Change measure into a hyperlink

Hi,

Does anyone know if you can turn measures as hyperlinks?

Microsoft page says Yes but not released yet (April 2018), however it points to what's new in July - September 2018 update which says "Use measures to define a hyperlink to navigate from a report to any other web address." which points to original post that says not release yet!

 

The option to set measure as Web URL also is disabled.

Am I missing something or was it not released yet?

Hi,

 

The data type in the picture shows that it's a decimal number. You can only turn text into a web url so make sure you've selected the correct measure or change the data type

I didn't expect text in measure to be treated as decimal data type! Missed that one.

Thanks very much.
