    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    I'm not sure.

    However, you can enter the first half of the absolute address, and then create a Measure to concatenate the half and the relative url.

    For example:

     

    URL Measure = MAX('absolute'[absolute]) & MAX('relative'[relative])

     

    If I understand it wrong, please let me know.

     

     

    Best Regards,

      Thanks for you reply Icey.

       

      Actually I'm using powerbi embedded. So I want to redirect the user to a particular url in the site. This site may have many different domains. 

       

      example:

      1. http://mycompany1.com

      2. http://mycompany2.com

       

      I give a relative url in the table like '/report/testreport?filter=Table/Column+eq+value'.

       

      So when the user on site #1 click on the link it should redirect the user to 'http://mycompany1.com/report/testreport?filter=Table/Column+eq+value'

       

      when the user on site #2 click on the link it should redirect the user to 'http://mycompany2.com/report/testreport?filter=Table/Column+eq+value'.

       

      Thanks,

      Joe

        Hi Anonymous ,

         

        Sorry to reply late.

        For your question, the answer is No. Power BI doesn't support it.

        I suggest you to try something like so:

         

        1. Enter data.

         

        2. Create a slicer with 'domain'[domain].

         

        3. Create a measure and change the data category to "Web URL".

         

         

        Or, try to use Query Parameters.

         

         

        Best Regards,

        Icey
