It would be great to have a possibility to have page/bookmark navigation also in Table and Matrix, using the existing Web URL conditional formatting.
this could work by using simple prefixes, that would change the link behavior.
example table:
displayed value: Google ; navigation URL: "www.google.com" - this would navigate to google.com
displayed value: Sales Report ; navigation URL: "Page:Sales Report" - this would navigate to Sales Report page in the same browser tab, just like the button would navigate
displayed value: Details ; navigation URL: "Bookmark:Details" - this would navigate to Details bookmark in the same browser tab, just like the button would navigate
This would be a great addition to navigation options. It would allow creating aggregated details table that has a direct navigation to detailed pages.
Using Drill through for navigation is not straight forward and end users just do not see it

RE: Matrix and Table - Web URL to navigate to Bookmark and Page
You can use Web URL to navigate to other report pages. You have to copy the page address from your browser. It's not really usable, but it works in a pinch. Accessing pages by name would be much better, but since page names aren't unique, there would have to be some other way to handle this. I think possibly allowing an action as a cell element instead of a URL would work better and serve the purpose?I've found that adding nice big drill action buttons helps users. It's a lot easier to explain, and it lets users know when an action is available.
