Hyperlinks in Sheet Summary not clickable when added to Dashboard as Metric Widget.

Is this intentional?

@heyjay

you need to have the 'Use Formatting From Source' checked off:

That icons seems to be for the Grid. I am working on the Sheet summary and I dont see anything to format the links.

Here's what I have for the properties attributes

That icon is found when you are editing a metric widget

FYI, the formatting icon shows up when editing the text size on the widget line item itself, but at least as of now (March 2024) that button does not allow the text to be treated as the hyperlink it is (aka - only shows as non-clickable website address. I really want to accomplish original posters goal of dynamically linking the value from the sheet summary cell (gets updated on each project) to the dashboard so users can click the links and navigate to other locations. I dont want to edit the dashboard for each project in order to get these hyperlinks updated, as they are typed in once already during kick off of project.

Any other options to get clickable hyperlinks from sheet summary or sheet cells to actually by clickable on dashboard?

I am also trying to insert clickable links into a Metric Widget that pulls from our Project Plan Summary data fields. Any updates?
