Hello people, I have a question about the view description. Is it possible to add a clickable link into the description of a view? Or is there are another place in the view that I can add a link for an external page?

Hi, I understand that you would like to have hyperlinks in the description of your view, which will redirect to an external URL. In Data Catalog, it is possible to have a link in the [object description](https://community.denodo.com/docs/html/browse/8.0/en/vdp/vql/language_for_defining_and_processing_data_vql/object_descriptions/object_descriptions) of your view. You just need to make sure that the configuration is enabled in *Data Catalog > Administration > Set-up and management > Personalization > Elements > HTML > **Enable HTML descriptions and properties***. This configuration allows the descriptions to be represented in HTML format instead of text. You can check this [user guide](https://community.denodo.com/docs/html/browse/latest/en/vdp/data_catalog/administration/personalization/personalization#elements) for more details. However, it is not possible to display the view Description in the same HTML format when you access it in the Design Studio or VDP Administration Tool, and the links would be seen as normal text. Hope it helps!
