You can add a link to an external website on the asset detail page. When you click the link, the external page opens in a new window. This feature allows you to provide additional information about your assets directly from the asset detail page.

Note: The link will not be clickable in the asset detail view.

This feature/solution requires your Customer Success Contact to enable, but then individual permissions can be done by the Bynder Admin.
