Add a hyperlink to a URL in a paginated report (Report Builder)

Applies to:  Microsoft Report Builder (SSRS)  Power BI Report Builder  Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools

Learn how to add hyperlink actions to text boxes, images, charts, and gauges in paginated reports. Links can go to other reports, to bookmarks in a report, or to static or dynamic URLs.

You can add a hyperlink action to any item that has an Action property, for example, a text box, an image, or a calculated series in a chart. When the user selects that report item, the action that you define takes place.

  • You can add a hyperlink that opens a browser with a URL that you specify. The hyperlink can be a static URL or an expression that evaluates to a URL. If you have a field in a database that contains URLs, the expression can contain that field, resulting in a dynamic list of hyperlinks in the report. Make sure your report readers have access to the URL that you provide.

  • You can also specify URLs to create drillthroughs to reports on any report server that you and your users have permission to view using URL requests to the report server. For example, you can specify a report and hide the document map for the user when they first view the report. For more information, see URL access and Specify paths to external items (Report Builder).

  • And you can add a bookmark to a specific place in the same report.

Try adding hyperlinks with sample data in Tutorial: Format text (Report Builder).

Note

Links that are bound to dataset fields can be vulnerable to tampering for malicious purposes. For more information, see Secure reports and resources.
