Provide a "Custom URL" property on data items in Charts / Tables / Tiles.
When this property is set, clicking on that data item in a report should follow the link in the custom URL and include the value clicked as a parameter in the URL.
This would enable use cases like drilling through to an SSRS report, or linking to line or business application to view order details / product details ets.

This would be great. My use case is for our ticketing system. Once you drill down to a specific search or individual ticket, I'd like to link to the application, which works without issue when entering the link into a file explorer window or web browser.

An example link would be: "CherwellClient://commands/goto?rectype=Incident&PublicID=1676173"
