Links don't work with %tensorboard in Colab

[skye]

Internal links don't seem to work when using the embedded tensorboard profiler with Colab. For example, the graph viewer link from the trace viewer opens a new tab to the profile overview page (this might be useful itself, but the links in the new tab also don't work). Presumably it should open the graph viewer within the iframe.

Hi Skye,
There are changes being made in Tensorboard to enable the deep link of the profiler plugin, you could try update the run environment, and it should be working with a minimum tensorboard version of 2.17.0 and stable tbp version.
Also it will open a new tab in the chrome (not within the iframe), mainly to support the crosslinks more generally for cases other than colab as well.

for reference, a quick workaround would be:

!pip install tensorboard --upgrade

and restart the environment and relaunch the tensorboard with plugin.
