Dashboards & Visualizations

How to insert hyperlink to the values of a column in Dashboard Studio.

I have a visualization of type splunk.table in Dashboard Studio (version 9.0.2). The source table contains columns "id" from which I have derived the column "link".

sourcetype="x"
| eval link = "https://xyz.com/" + id
| table id, link 

I want the "link" column be visible as hyperlink (blue and underlined) in the dashboard, such that, each value of the column when clicked, opens the respective link in a new tab.

I tried making below changes, not sure what am i doing wrong here:

        "viz_jZKnPQQG": {
            "type": "splunk.table",
            "title": "x",
            "dataSources": {
                "primary": "ds_GresBkrN"
            },
            "options": {
                "tableFormat": {
                    "rowBackgroundColors": "> table | seriesByIndex(0) | pick(tableRowBackgroundColorsByTheme)"
                },
                "count": 8,
                "backgroundColor": "> themes.defaultBackgroundColor",
                "showRowNumbers": true,
                "fontSize": "small",
                "showInternalFields": false
            },
            "eventHandlers": [
                {
                    "type": "drilldown.customUrl",
                    "options": {
                        "url": "$row.link$",
                        "newTab": true
                    }
                }
            ]
        },
