Hello,

 

And thank you so much for your quick response! I have already tried already the documented solutions you sent me but it doesn't work for Lotus Notes hyperlinks..It works for regular URLs, yes.

I believe Power BI hyperlinks recognition is limited to the following URIs(as per documentation): 

"Considerations and troubleshooting

URLS must start with one of the following:

  • http
  • https
  • -mailto
  • file
  • ftp
  • news
  • telnet"

Any other option..or else?

 

Many thanks,

 

Daniela.

Hi Daniela,
You can also try to use any shape and under Action property select Web Url in Type option and enter Web URL I hope it may accept any URLs.

    Hello,

     

    Thank you so much for your suggestions! Unfortunately none of the options worked for me..I believe Power BI is limited to the few URI types as per Microsoft documentation..

     

    If anyone succeeded accessing Lotus Notes links from Power BI, please let me know.

     

    Muchly appreciated,

    Daniela.

      Hi DanielaA ,

       

      As you said, the URLs in Power BI do have limitation, which is already stated in the official documentation.

      For your problem, maybe you can submit an idea .
