SharePoint List Custom Form (using PowerApps): How to make hyperlink button clickable in view mode

Posted on by FarmingBA

Hi all,

I have a custom form for a SharePoint list. One of the fields is a hyperlink. I have made a button and used the "Launch" function to launch the hyperlink in this field. However, this button can only be clicked when the form is in "Edit Mode". Ideally, I want the button to be able to be launched in ViewMode. The button does not ever need to be edited in the form. It just needs to be launched. Snips below. The button is the red circled "Click to view S&A". This launches a URL to a document (that is stored in the SharePoint list). This URL will always be the same so no need for this to be an edit field, which is why I made it a button.

First snip shows the button on the form

Second snip shows the button in power apps

Third snip shows the hyperlink datacard which the button launches

Hi @FarmingBA ,

Consider:

Add a Custom Card into your Form
Insert a HTML control
In the HtmlText property, enter:

"<a href='"&ThisItem.'Your hyperlink field'&"'>Some text</a>"
