How to use URL Action with Data Blending?

Andrea Wendel Jun 7, 2012 9:29 AM

Hi,

I'm trying to create a URL Action in a blended data table. The field that I use in the URL is in my secondary data source. The URL Action doesn't seem to work.

Is this expected? Any known work-arounds?

Thanks!

Hi Andrea,

The field for a URL has to come from the primary data source. This might be a good one to add to the Ideas section1

I managed to do this by creating a calculated field in the primary data source for the URL. You then must add said calculated field to the sheet that you're adding an action to.
