Tricky options! Go to hyperlink and Go to Web page are not valid Actions in Tableau.

A URL action is a hyperlink that points to a web page, file, or other web-based resource outside of Tableau.

Tables that you drag to the logical layer of the Data Source page canvas must be related to each other. When you drag additional tables to the logical layer canvas, Tableau automatically attempts to create the relationship based on existing key constraints and matching fields to define the relationship.

To interactively display information from the web INSIDE a dashboard, you can use a URL action with a web page object.
