Hi @KV-03091035-0,
Can you please explain your requirement a bit more, the link is generated, where do you need this link in power apps or Sharepoint Column ?

or you want the name of the link as "OnbehalfCPTLink", but underlying link address as your link address
Example: OnbehalfCPTLink

Hi

I recommend using SharePoint Column Formatting to customize how the hyperlink appears in your list.
In your Power Automate flow, simply update the SharePoint Hyperlink column with the full URL (make sure it includes http:// or https://).

Then, in your SharePoint list, follow these steps:

Enter:

{ "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json", "elmType": "a", "attributes": { "href": "[$Hyperlink]", "target": "_blank" }, "style": { "color": "#0078d4", "text-decoration": "underline" }, "txtContent": "OnbehalfCPTLink" }

Save

Let me know if that helped!

Hi @Power Apps 1919

Yes, the link is generated in SharePoint List but it seems too long, hence want to create a Hyperlink for those links similar to what you have given as example.

Hi @KV-03091035-0,
then you can try @chiaraalina Suggestion of advanced column formatting using JSON, that can solve your problem, if you are seeing the column from SharePoint UI .

And do you want to show this link in Another place like Canvas App?
If yes, Use HTML Text or Label/Button Control with OnSelect as (Launch ({Your Dynamic URL}))

Hi @Power Apps 1919

Thanks for the methods. was trying the Update 2 method however wanted to confirm that will this work only in new SharePoint view or it can work in classic SharePoint view also? As i have tried the Update 2 method, shows the flow to be successful but the Hyperlink still isn't created i n the classic sharepoint view.

Hi @chiaraalina

Thank you for your help.

However, this didn't work completely, although I was able to get the Hyperlink but when clicking on the link it shows blank page.

Also, when I tied to change the formatting to the orignial way it is not showing any link now, could you help me?

Hi @KV-03091035-0

Thanks for the update!

Check the internal name of your column
Go to your SharePoint list
Click on List settings → Columns → [Your Column]
In the URL, look for something like:
...Field=YourColumnName
Use that name in your JSON instead of Hyperlink, e.g. [$YourColumnName]

Ensure the column type is: “Hyperlink or Picture” (not "Single line of text")

Verify that the column has a value
Open the SharePoint list and make sure the Hyperlink column has a populated URL
