Anchor text to line and add hyperlink

Hello all!
I’m creating a HLD for a network and want to label each link (line) with text I want this text / it’s pill to be a hyperlink.  

 

If this is not possible, is there some way to anchor an object (text box or even an invisible rectangle) which does have the hyperlink to the line / text?

ie.  I want a user to be able to click the text on a line to follow a link and for the text and the link to be anchored to the line

Hi ​@IFR 

Adding a hyperlink directly to a line or its label is not feasible. Hyperlinks only work on shapes or text boxes. Try to place a small text/shape (like a pill or transparent box) with the link on top of the line and group it so it moves with the connector.
