Reading Hyperlinks from Smartsheet to Tableau
Hi everyone, wondering if someone has experienced this and can support me.
I have Tableau connected to Smartsheet and there's a column that contains a hyperlink with a display text. When Tableau reads these fields, it only reads the display text and not the URL. How do I get the URL from these cells into Tableau?
Thanks!

Currently as far as I'm aware, hyperlinked text will only be read by the Tableau connector as the surface plain text value, as you've found. You would need to use the full URL instead of a hyperlink. Please let our Product team know about your use-case and request for this featureby filling in this form, here!
Thank you,

There currently isn't a way to overlay an Outlook Calendar on top of a Smartsheet Calendar; you can do the reverse, publish dates from Smartsheet into Outlook.<\/a><\/p>
