Hi,
We have a field type 'URL' that stores link to external application. The link is clickable from form.
In the 'View' the column appears to have the URL text but not hyperlink.
I am trying to
1. Display a hyperlink rather than text in the view
2. Display a image for the hyperlink in the view
Are these possible to achieve in a Model Driven app?
I see you're using the Editable Grid which might be the reason. Try using the default Read-only Grid to see if the link appears as a hyperlink. If it does then it's probably an issue/bug with URLs on the Editable Grid and I would submit a Microsoft Support Ticket at https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/support
@ChrisPiasecki , thank you for letting me know about FluentUI
Hi Eric, Thank you for your response. The field is URL datatype but doesn't shows the hyperlink in the view (shown in attachment). But , in another test entity I see the URL hyperlink is actually working as you said! Does the hyperlink logic has some special character restrictions? We have entries like: https://tasks.office.com/xxxxxx.onmicrosoft.com/en-GB/Home/Planner/#/plantaskboard?groupId=e3eaf9a3-3742-4cf6-8238-a59622806228&planId=Rkt_lnpoOEGaZaLdhnYP_JcACBIs
Hi @RamyaPF,
If I understand correctly, you are trying to have a clickable hyperlink data field in model-driven app? This is supported out-of-the-box both on forms and views. In make.powerapps.com, create your field as URL datatype, then simply add your field to your forms and views. The link will be clickable:
Regarding images, it is supported both on forms and views, but requires some JavaScript. Here's more details: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customerengagement/on-premises/customize/display-custom-icons-instead
Hope this helps!
Hi @RamyaPF,
The short answer is not without code.
You could create a custom dataset control via PowerApps Component Framework (PCF). If you use FluentUI, it can look just like an out box control as PowerApps is built using React/FluentUI under the hood.
Here is a good example of a dataset control built using the Details List control in FluentUI.

Let me know if this helps.
