Actions on a title component don’t make the image a hyperlink. Doublecheck the action has all fields filled in correctly, and you’ll see a button appear.

Hi @Manikandan_R,

I like using lists to do this. You can add icon images and create open link actions for each.

Used that here as an example for him. Just to be clear, this is Pages so the “list” is “collection”.
