If a data column is formatted as URL it should be rendered as URL in all appropriate data visualizations, including Power Q&A table output.

RE: URL data type support

Hi, I ended up here whilst trying to get a URL to work as a clickable hyperlink in a Matrix table. I also loaded a few other pages, one of which solved my problem (https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-hyperlinks-in-tables/). My interest was purely the matrix table so you guys might be using some other visualisations but I thought it worth putting this link in just incase.

RE: URL data type support

This is exactly the reason I came to the feedback section. It's silly that I can format a column to be a URL, IN POWER BI DATA MODELING, but when it shows up in the table or other visualization it is not a clickable link. Please fix this soon.

RE: URL data type support

No visualiza imágenes con una ruta URL en Android , además no puedo trabajar con campos binary con imágenes.
