Open External web url from PBI report

Hi Anonymous ,

Please review the following links, hope they can help you.

Power BI Desktop Opening external website

URL Action - Open in same window

Link to external web site (or other published Power BI Application)

This should do the trick... but ummm

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-add-hyperlink-to-text-box

 

OK, so it's supposed to work when published to the powerbi web site. Which is exactly what I want. Though this doesn't let me test it as such... oh well.

 

Additionally... the August 2018 release has a Web URL that you can set up. In the example (watch the video) I can't figure out how the icon is presented instead of URL text.

OK format the Matrix, under VALUES, look for URL Icon and turn it on.
