You can include a hyperlink in XML by using CDATA tag. Embed the HTML tag - "<a>" inside CDATA as below. This will ensure that the XML file recognizes the contents inside the "<a>" tag as a hyperlink.

   <xml_tag_name>
      <![CDATA[
             The file is here – <a href="https://abc.com/ver.txt">Click here for the file</a>
                ]]>
    </xml_tag_name>

You should now be able to write the CDATA element inside a xml tag in the xml file via MATLAB.
