How to create a column that embeds a URL in a word or name on Power Pages dataverse table?

Posted on by jakesh

Hello.

I am trying to create a dataverse table to populate as list in a Power Page. In this list I am trying to add a couple of columns, one being a URL. But instead of displaying the full URL, how do I embed that URL into text?

For example instead of the field showing https://www.widgets.com I would like it to read Widgets Page with a url embedded to it. I haven't been able to find a solution for that, and it would seem like something very standard or easy to do.

Thanks so much.

Hey @jakesh

You can achieve this via JavaScript once you add your list to a web page.

In Portal management

1. Under content > Web page > choose your web page

2. localized content > Advanced > Custom Javascript

3. Place and tweak the JS as per the below thread.

Hope it helps.

@ragavanrajan Thanks so much for your response.

I replaced the the following but didn't work for me. What do you think I am missing or what else do I need to replace in this code to make it work?

find("td[data-attribute='crb8e_urlcolumnname']")
if(value.value == "https://fauxlinkpage.powerappsportals.com/payors/")

Hi @jakesh

Please post your console log messages here. Can you check console.log line is printing? Should be easy to fix if console.log is printed.

Hope it helps.

@jakesh can you share the entire code?

also are the URLs external or internal? if they are internal I am wondering if you should be looking at SiteMarkers instead
