Add Link options greyed out - Apple Community
And I'm experiencing the same issue in 2023. I was able to use this feature without any problem.
I'm opening a new document, adding some information in any cell in the blank table, and this is what I get:

Hi Nosolomusica,
just do a double click in the cell with your text, it should work as soon as the text is highlighted.

Hello Ralf. Your solution doesn't work. Please read the thread and look at the attached screenshot: Numbers doesn't allow to add any link, even in a new document. Same issue as the other thread from 2017.
The answer SGIII gave in the thread from 2017 is the same answer as Ralf-F provided. The person who posted the question in 2017 never posted back after SGIII posted the correct answer so I assume it worked for them. You need to select some text in the cell before adding a link. The link is connected to text in the cell, not to the cell itself. In your original post your screenshot shows that you have selected the cell, not the text in the cell. Select some text in the cell before trying to add a link.
The link is not from the cell itself but from the rich text that the cell contains as its value. So you need to select text first before the Add Link menu item becomes active.
Note this is similar to, say, adding a link in an email. You have select text within an email first and then Add Link.
