Having to Ctrl+Click hyperlinked text

Hello,

 

My hyperlinked text reacts normally to a mouse click in service and opens the URL. But once published to a webpage, requires a ctrl+click. Is there a way to change this?

 

Thank you!

Hi @jaseverson ,
Based on your description, it is common to encounter situations where interactive elements such as hyperlinks behave differently on different platforms, including when transitioning from services such as Power BI to the web.
The requirement to use Ctrl+Click to activate hyperlinks when publishing content on a web page is typically a security feature or a setting in the web browser itself, rather than a setting that can be adjusted in Power BI or in published content. This behavior is intended to prevent accidental or malicious redirects and to ensure that users intentionally follow links.
If you want to modify the way the hyperlink is activated, then you need to be a developer of the web page and change the way the hyperlink is triggered through java code.

Best regards,
