Linked Object property as a URL

[Coder]

I’d really appreciate your help with an issue I’ve been stuck on for the past couple of days.

I’m trying to render a property from a linked object as a clickable URL — ideally displaying a label like “View Record” rather than exposing the raw URL. However, I haven’t been able to achieve this through the Property List or Object Table, since the field is coming from a linked object.

To work around this, I created a function that returns the URL, either as a Markdown string or as an object with text and url. Unfortunately, when I try to render the function output in Workshop, the URL is still displayed as plain text — either showing the full [text](url) Markdown or exposing the full URL, without making it clickable.

I’m looking for guidance on how to properly render a link from a function — ideally as a clickable label — either in a Property List or Object Table, even when it’s based on a linked object.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

URLs need to be configured directly based on object properties - when you click “Add column” in the table config, at the bottom, below the object title, there is a URL entry.

The issue is that the string substitution used to “build” the URL only allows referencing direct properties on the main object in the table. I thought maybe I could use the new “Derived Properties” feature to “add” the property from the linked object to the object type in the table to work around this, but that didn’t work. I’ll raise an issue with the Workshop team since I would expect this to be the path forward in this situation.

Thank you. I have been facing this limitations with linked objects.
