    I would like to create a hyperlink, which doesn't start with http or https.
    It is a link to a page in Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
    Is it possible to create such a link?

    It is relevant if the viewer want to change or edit the data directly in the relevant desktop application after viewing PowerBi report/dashboard. Direct link from the dashboard would be very convenient for the user/viewer.
    Some application are installed in the desktop version and not always in cloud.

    Why would the hyperlink need to start with anything specific? It would be good to support hyperlinks in their general form. Regarding security issues, an intermediate warning like in Excel would do it I think.

    Being able to link to a network drive would be HUGE for a report I'm building. Please please please make this a reality.

    We publish power bi files to a network server within our company. Can you make it possible to a a network path link that can be accessed from a power bi file published to our network?
