Hyperlinks in table grid not rendering as links

Hi this morning my colleague noticed that hyperlinks in the Power BI service are not rendering as links, they appear as plain text.  We checked the Power BI desktop file and this works as expected, so we published the PBI file to the Power BI service, still no change.

 

Any one else having the same issue?

      Hi BobF,

       

      It seems that the issue has gone, right? :smileyhappy:

       

      In my test, hyperlinks in a table visual can be clicked and open corresponding web page. See:

       

       

      Best Regards,

        Hi Qiuyun_Yu thanks for your reply, yesterday morning (GMT) several of the reports hosted on the Power BI service, all displayed the same symptoms, when the grid was rendered the hyperlink appeared correctly for a moment (approx 1 sec) indicated by the blue text and underline. Then the hyperlink disappeared and returned to normal text, when we clicked on the text it did not go to the url. We checked the PowerBI desktop version of the report, which worked as expected. Next we published the report to the PowerBI service replacing the dataset and report. On checking the newly published report, and the same symptoms. After lunchtime (1pm GMT) we checked the reports and the hyperlink was rendering correctly. If l see issues like this again what l will do is make a video to post and note the timings with greater care. The orginal cause of the issue has now been resolved, which is fantastic. We are currently using Power BI to host production reports for a number of clients.  So there are a lot of pairs of eyes which will notice these minor issues :smileywink:
