Hi @grayboy ,

 

Yes, it is possible to use a Microsoft Lists link in Power BI. You can use a SharePoint connector to quickly access Microsoft Lists data in Power BI.

  1. Open Power BI Desktop and select Get data > More from the Home tab of the ribbon.
  2. Select Online Services, and then select SharePoint Online List.
  3. Select Connect.

Once you have loaded the list data into Power BI, you can add hyperlinks to a table or matrix by following these steps :

  1. Select the table or matrix to make it active.
  2. Select the Format icon to open the Formatting tab.
  3. Under Visual > URL icon, for Values, select On.
