As other posts for help point out hyperlinks do not transfer when when using functions to look up hyperlink values. Please add support for looking up hyperlink values via formula such that the Display Text and URL transfer to the destination. See details in the links below.
The workaround of linking to a cell in another sheet containing a URL is extremely tedious when working with many rows.
The workaround of using URLs only with no friendly text is unprofessional and gives a poor user experience.

You should be able to copy a hyperlink (such as a link to another sheet) by way of a formula. Having to do each one separately is painful and time consuming.
Not having this is a huge disappointment.
I've already got the hyperlink in one sheet, and when I INDEX/MATCH or VLOOKUP that cell, I should be able to pull not just the text but the whole link including the friendly name over. It's so annoying to only be able to get the URL
Cell linking brings over text instead of full functionality such as a hyperlink. see this article:
This is a known issue, but I'm adding my vote for the functionality. Please enable hyperlinks in the data delivered by VLOOKUP and INDEX(COLLECT) functions.

Hi, I was creating new dashboard and thought it'll be so nice to have easy drag and drop Report widget capability from Workspace Panel since I always group set of reports under one folder (for ease of finding them what goes on the dashboard). I think this would be great time saver especially if you have similar name…
In the Resource Management Plan Settings in Control Center, there is no way to link the Client and Project Code fields even though they are not Custom fields and part of the first 3 fields you enter when creating a new project. I can't select them in the Custom Resource Management Information Fields because they are not…
Since the license model has changed, the option to Share should default to VIEW, not EDIT. The View option allows less-experienced users to share that way by default, and share as Edit only when needed. This allows for less cleanup during true-up. This also prevents users from adding provisional licenses unknowingly.
