I am trying to add a link to a web URL to a button but the action is unresponsive in desktop or when published. URL is correct, tried multiple and no URL works.

Hi  @cjpar ,

Can you explain the steps to add url for button and we can help you better .

Here are my steps which are displayed properly in my scenario:

First method:

Click on the button - Format - Action:

Type – Web URL

Web Url - place link url

Second method:

Create the MEASURE:

url = "https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/power-bi-hyperlinks-in-tables?tabs=powerbi-desktop"

Click on the button - Format - Action:

Type – Web URL

Web URL—fx

Result：

Ctrl + left mouse button displays the corresponding link.

Is your Power BI Desktop the latest version, if not, you can update to the latest version.

Download Power BI Desktop from Official Microsoft Download Center
