We use a Conluence whiteboard to visualize on of our processes. Each step in the process is represented by an object (square or diamont shapes).

We want to add hyperlinks to the objects which point to other confluence pages with more detailed information about each step in the process.

We tried to do this by clicking "Link in Objekt kopieren" but this only copies a link to the object in the clipboard. Is there another way to add hyperlinks to the objects?

Welcome to the community @Katharina Fetzer 

As an alternative, on the whiteboard navbar use the Add link option:

Thank you for your quick reply!

We can use this and replace our objects with the confluence cards.

 

I still think it would look a lot better and would also be more flexible, if we could just add a hyperlink to the text of the object. This is not possible?

For now, sadly now. Even if you copy the link of your page to the object, it won't be shown as the link rather plain text.

This is wild that in 2024 one can't add a link to a piece of text or the object.

I second this "is wild" and unless I'm missing something, I can't seem to find a way to create a Whiteboard template.  These should be table stakes...
