Creating custom URL within table that opens custom program

[jfenico]

Hi all,

I know Power BI will allow you to define a column as a web address and with that will automatically create a link if it detects http, https, file, and mailto. However, I was wondering if there was a way to create a link with a custom url. Our database handles project data and we had an old program that would allow us to click on the specific project data from the report and open our program to that specific project in question (basically to edit the project information). 

Coming up with the link itself is easy enough, all I need to do in Power Bi is make the value clickable. Any thoughts?

Hi @jfenico,

I don't there is an option to do it in Power BI currently. I would suggest you add it as an idea on Power BI Ideas to improve Power BI on this feature.
