hyperlinks in table

Hello,   Is there a way I can post hyperlinks in a database, and have them show up in a table and be clickable in powerbi?   Thanks, Eric

Did you ever get an answer this by any chance? I would also like to use hyperlinks but some of the URL's are 60 characters or more. Not great on a dashboard!

Thanks

I finally found the solution -- select the "URL Icon option" under the "Values" section on the grid "Format" tab.  This displays the URL as a "chain link" icon instead of the full URL.

    I'm going to have to try that out.  Everyone I asked told me it couldn't be done yet. Thanks!
