Hello @Sanjeeb2022, Thank you for the response.

I tried this but I want the value to be hyperlinked so we can click and open it in either in new tab or in new window.
Please find the attachment for reference. I want to add a hyperlink (like www.demo.com/B_21 something) in Batch column value. When we click on B_21 it should open it in new tab.

If this will not solve the problem, another approach is to have a calculated field, which will have your URL + batch id and you put it in the table ( it is not a good approach, but will work).

Let’s hear from other experts as well, tagging @David_Wong @duncan @Biswajit_1993 for their advise.

@sonalJain @qs_user_93 , refer to this tips and trick demo for achieving the same using url action, explanation on how to achieve table url is available at the end of the table visual. Most of the steps outlines by Sanjeeb are relevant.

@DeepakS i don’t think you got the question correctly. There column which has let’s say int values, when someone clicks on that column with int value, click should open a tab. the importance here is "on click on a single column [Select action, not Menu option] , it should re direct to a URL, not whole row "

@qs_user_93 if your use case is that you want to click on a column to open a new tab as an action, you can still achieve that using above solution approach (though action is enabled at row level) . However if you want to build the same functionality for multiple columns in a single row, that’s not possible for now and will add that as feature request.

ok thanks, this thread is opened specifically for this use case only. row level there but it’s useless.
