Try this:
in the designer, delete the current proces_verbal: Sorties Sorties and rebuild it with something like:

{
"Title": "your title",
"proces_verbal": {
"Url": "https://yourtenant.sharepoint.com/.../PV_CM_2026-04-29.pdf",
"Description": "PV CM 29 avril"
},
"date_de_la_seance": "your date",
"type_de_seance": "your type"
}

Write the highlighted part in one single expression.

"MyLinkColumn": {
"Url": "https://contoso.com",
"Description": "My Website"
}
}

Hello @khedidja90,

Create item action will accept only the URL value for Hyperlink columns.

So if you want to store both:
URL
Description

then you need to use Send an HTTP request to SharePoint after creating the item and update the Hyperlink field in this format:

{ "Hyperlinkfield": { "Url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremylevoye/", "Description": "My LinkedIn page" } }

Because the standard Create item action does not expose the Description property for Hyperlink fields.

Please follow below link for step by step guidance.
