Creating a table with static values in dashboard studio

Hello I am new to dashboard studio and trying to achieve below- 

1. Add a table which has static values (hard coded not derived from a search) and each of this field links to a hyperlink.

Example

Title (XYZ)

A      B    C

D      E     F

G      H     Z

I should be able to add hyperlinks for each of the values above using configuration settings. For example A represents https://xyz.com and clicking on A should open a new window for that link.

Also,  I need another table which has three static values like       X      Y       Z and clicking on each of these should show a new panel.

Please do let me know if you need more details.

Thank you

You can use a markdown box. Markdown can be used to create a table. With urls.

@PickleRick Hello, thank you so much for your response. This helps. The problem I have is the link opens in the same window. I want this to be opened in the new window. For example - I had below code in my classic dashboard and it opens the link in a new window-

 

<a href="https://abc.xyz.com/" style="color:#008080;" target="_blank">External Lilnk </a>

I tried similar in markdown but it doesn't seem to work. Is it correct to say that HTML code doesn't work with Markdown in splunk?

Could you please advise how can I achieve this (opening the link in new window in markdown)? Thank you for your time and help.

I have no idea but I suppose it's not possible. Markdown on its own doesn't have any options for specifying how the URL should be opened so it's up to the rendering engine. And in this case apparently it's opened in the same window.

EDIT: I think PickleRick has the right approach.
