Hi All,
I currently have an excel datasheet that holds various data, one of the columns holds ID numbers but all of these numbers are hyperlinks to PDF's located in my SharePoint.
When I upload to Power BI via the web import function I can no longer see these hyperlinks.
Is it possible to upload these into Power BI?
Cheers,
@Anonymous You can show hyerplinks in powerbi. Change the data category to Web-URL in the power bi desktop. These links should be able to take the users to the PDF links

@negi007 thanks for your response.
I have put the URL column in a table and changed the column 'data category' to web URL but nothing has changed and nothing is clickable.
Any tips?
Cheers
Hi , @Anonymous
Nothing is clickable in data view ,even you changed the column 'data category' to web URL.
You need to apply the column field to create a visualization (table,matrix....) in report view .
For more detail,please check the attached file and this document
