Creating Document Titles as Links in a Task Report

I’m working on a task report that I’ve added a column to list documents in them. The text mode for the column is:

displayname=Documentslistdelimiter=<br>listmethod=nested(documents).liststype=iteratevaluefield=namevalueformat=HTML

Is it possible to take this further in text mode to have the document titles be links? I’ve tried a few different options that haven’t worked out so far (the full href text or nothing at all). I’m unsure if this is a limitation in Workfront or maybe I haven’t made the correct edits in text mode. Any insight is appreciated.

I don’t think this will be possible. I also had to opt in for full document link as when you try to input <a href.. it breaks it and shows the text instead of HTML. What I did was use Fusion to put a link to a custom form in a rich text field which we would then display on the report.

If this solved your issue, please mark it as solved so others can find the solution faster.

Thanks for confirming that this isn’t possible. We currently don’t have Fusion, so I’ll live with only the document names listed in the column with no links for the time being.
