Tool Tips In Modern Dashboards?

I am trying to add a way to link to a device that we have listed in a modern dashboards table widget, so that non technical users can easily click on the device and access it and go from there. I cant find a way to have the "Column properties and formatting" tab allow me to do such a thing. When I try and set the format type as a link, then select the "device name" for the URL it tosses an error because it links you to https:/solarwinds.whatever.whatever/apps/platform/device_name and not the nodes actual url within Solarwinds.

Is this something that needs to be worked into the SWQL query or what?

If I'm understanding correctly, you want any of your nodes to be clickable, and when clicked the user is taken to the Node Details page.

If so, then you are on the right track, and just need to ensure your initial query has the "Detailsrl" included in the query. For example, we have a widget that we use within our admin dashboard to give us an overview of the health of each of our pollers - part of the query looks like this:

Then in the widget section you'd delete this as a column, but for the node (in our case APE0) links, you'd adjust the formatting to look like this:
