How to show URL on column headers in matrix visualization?
I am creating a report using Matrix Visualization and trying to put URL on Column headers (Column1, Column2, etc).
But what I find from conditional formatting is getting URL on values, not on column headers. Can anyone suggest me how to put URL on column names so that if I hover my cursor on Column1 then it should indicate an URL and I can click on it.
v-luwang-msft hope you can help me on this. Thanks in advance!
Hi Anonymous
Unfortunately, it can't be done in Tooltip if you want the matrix indicates a hyperlink when you hover on column. But you can show it in matrix, and replace it with a hyperlink icon.

First, change property of the column to Web URL,
Then, if you want to replace it with a hyperlink icon, go to Format Tab – Column headers – URL icon，

Hey Anonymous ,
the headers are static and you cannot link them.
The only option you have is to put links in the values.
Sorry about that.
