Customizable Table Preview Link

eschranz opened this issue · comments

Expected Behavior or Use Case

Is there a way to remove the Preview button on pages or have it redirect to a URL? We want to use Snowflake's data preview page for tables (not Superset, etc) and we currently need to have a separate Programmatic Description or ResourceReport link to display the link. Being able to do this through databuilder would also be useful for automation.

Context

Being able to use a custom link to lead to a desired preview page or service helps from a UX perspective, rather than having links tucked away (e.g. in Reports) or using up space in the description section.

I could envision this working similarly to dashboards possibly? The TableMetadata model could have an optional init variable for preview_url or something like that? Much like DashboardMetadata has dashboard_url which leads to the provided link.
