I have Switch/Case depending on the approver value to direct a powerautomate workflow.

I am formatting "Start and Wait for an approval" action item for https URL links. I want to specify the URL link to the approvers list. The markdown formatting for Links doesn't seem to work for Case 2 & 3. In Case 1 it works. I have followed the syntax as per Microsoft. Any reason why this wouldn't work?

In Case 1 where I have the URL link as per [Item Link] (URL). This one seems to work fine.

In case 2 & 3, with the same format except for different list url link doesn't seem to work.

    Hi @mthiru_0023,


    Just to double check. Are you sure there isn't a space character between the ']' and '(' ?

    @Expiscornovus Thanks so much. I didn't realize no space allowed. That fixed it. i really appreciate your prompt response on this.
