Hi All! Check out today's update of XD. It is version 47 and includes the ability to make any object a hyperlink. To use hyperlinks:


1. Go to Prototype mode

2. Select an object and add an interaction.

3. Choose a trigger like Tap.

4. Choose the action Hyperlink.

5. Add a destination URL.

    Why is this not a feature? Embarrassing.

  • Nadine Gin commented  ·   ·  Report

    Not only for Buttons, as well for regular Text elements

  • Brett Housego commented  ·   ·  Report

    Appy Pie has hyperlinks. You're losing the game, Adobe!

  • Brett Housego commented  ·   ·  Report

    I am extremely disappointed that this is not available, though Adobe have had requests for this for 5 years! I will have to look at other software.

  • Gav commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please add external links functionality. Under review since 2016 is a long time especially when you look at the number of requests!

  • Molly Hillstrom commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is so basic for prototyping software to allow this. Catch up, Adobe.

  • loic commented  ·   ·  Report

    100% agree, will be very helpful if Adobe XD prototypes can link external URLs or just a different XD document...

    If you ever wondered why nobody uses XD this is probably one of the reasons. Under review for four years?

    Next up for me: Hiding the measurements when i start to move a layer with the arrow keys.

    Figma does it very well. Adobe XD must catch up! Good luck to the technical teams :)

    4 years later....this simple feature is still not added?!?!?!?!?

  • Martin commented  ·   ·  Report

    Not impressed with Adobe here. Needed feature that seems to be non-controversial for other providers to give their users.
    The solution that Ajay shares below is only working when exporting to local disk - I can't make it work the "Share" function in XD, so really difficult to weave my mockups with the other team's mockups done in Figma. Maybe I need to look into shifting platform

    Found a Solution !!!

    Install the plugin Web Export available in the XD panel.

    To an Image or Button give a dummy link to an empty artboard. (Name the artboard to the external link website name)

    Now go to, Plugin > Web Export > Element option
    In the window search Hyperlink text box. Paste the link with http://

    you can Choose Export option with the same plugin

    On exporting it will go to the External website URL link.

    Really useful, no need to ask for engineering help.
