Hi,

I am importing work orders from an external CMMS and would like to add a link to a metadata field, so the user could access the CMMS work order directly from that event that represents it. When I add a URL it remains as string, but was wondering if I could make it a clickable link and with a friendly text. Is it possible?

Hi @Leonardo Silva Costa

I think it is possible. Please refer to the product idea here. Can you please share a screenshot of how the URL is displayed from your end?

Hi ​@Mithila Jayalath , sorry for my delay in responding to this. The link is clickable on the Data Explorer area, but not on the chart event detail. I’m attaching the screenshot:

 

The user would need to leave the chart and search for the exact event in the Data Explorer to be able to click it, just not very practical for who is doing an RCA analysis, for example.

@Leonardo Silva Costa Thank you for the update. Shall I convert this to a product idea?

Yes, it would be great to have such feature to navigate from the chart analysis to the CMMS system and explore more about the work order, in this use case.

Let me know if I have to take any action in this product idea creation workflow...
