Exporting Hyperlink URLS to Power Bi From Excel?
Hi telusive
To reach the goal you need to apply these steps :1. In Excel you need the links will be text data type with the original link and not "saved there"
2. make sure that the hyperlinks are in the needed format :
Column1file:///C:/Users/RitaFainshtein/Downloads/pedro.pbix 3. With Power BI desktop modify the column as a web URL:
4. You can let it look just with an icon :
Note that on the Power BI desktop, it will not open, just from the service.
5. To make it work from the service you need to add to Chrome the option of "enable local file links"
That's all 🙂 just publish.
