Display an image and then click on the image to open a URL

[mstoler]

Hello,

I have an image for a system that I want to display in Qlik Sense.  The image will be stored in the app or content library.

When the user clicks on the image I would like to open the browser with a URL.   Basically the image is an Icon for a content management system.

Is this possible in Qlik Sense or with an extension (Button would work well)

Thank You,

Michael

Yes you can. Add a Text and image object. 

Set the background as image in the property and select the image. 

Add a measure to text object   = 'link url' . Inside the object select the text and click on link icon and you can add the url you want to access. See the screenshot below.

Hello,

Yes that works but I would like to be able to click anywhere on the image to launch the URL.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

Michael

Thanks.

I found an extension that allows me to click on the image and then link to a URL.

I will use the extension but thanks for your assistance.

I am using June 2020 Qlik Sense release.  There is a button object available where you can assign an image to the background of the object. In the action you can use open URL to open website.
