If I understand what you're trying to do correctly, you should be able to use a URL field formatter for this. You configure that in Settings \>\> index name \>\> Edit \>\> Format \>\> URL. Then, when you use that value in a visualization (e.g. data table), you'll get a URL link. See attached screenshots for an example.

Hi Tbragin,

Thanks,I am looking for this solution.  
BUT,  
I click on index name in settings.But not able to find **edit button**.  
I searched for " **request.raw**" column in listed columns i didn't find that column  
And you mentioned **rawvalue** from where this value will take.

Please help.  
Regards,  
Dan

The field name may not be `request.raw`, you'll want to use whatever field it is that has the data you want to turn into a URL. In Tanya's screenshot above, that was just an example of the interface, not specifically the field to modify.

> Settings \>\> index name \>\> Edit

The _Edit_ is actually the little gear icon you see on the far right of the field, under the **controls** heading
