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. It's a deep disappointment that only the text within a cell will show.

As one of the system admins, it is absurd to me that I cannot view or have access to all of the items created in my organization. We have over 11,000 reports, sheets, and dashboards and I can't see them. I have no visibility to if people are using our plan for their own personal use, or what kind of work is going on unless…
I noticed this the other day and tested Ctrl + M – it does not work. I submit ticket to Smartsheet support – they told me that’s expected behavior because it’s not currently available even though it still shows as keyboard shortcut in the menu🙄 and told me to submit new product idea. Please add this keyboard shortcut to…
Currently, when using Automation to send Update Requests, there is no way to enforce mandatory (required) fields for users completing the request. This creates data quality issues, as users can submit incomplete updates, even when certain fields are critical. Proposed Enhancement Add the ability to mark specific fields as…
