Hyperlink in list on portal

Posted on by davidduplessis

Hi,

I am new to power apps and portals so apologies if this isn't the correct spot for this question.

I am using a powerapp portal to create a interface with external users to allow collaboration on a word document which is stored in a sharepoint document library. I have the flow working to create the document and present the link in the list view on the portal to the user.

Unfortunately though this looks really ugly as it shows the full url. Is there a way to display this as a simple text with the url being the hyperlink when the person clicks on the text instead? See screen shot for how it is currently displaying.

Cheers

David

Hi @ragavanrajan

This is the relevant part of the flow. Basically created a new document from sharepoint document library using a template then add this to the CDS custom object (Campaigns) in a url field called CampaingSPLocation using the link to item from the file propoerties.

Hope this makes sense.

A as the field only renders as a link if the field is set to format as URL (i.e. you can't just format an Anchor as the html is what gets displayed and not a link), the only things you can do are
shorten the URL itself (e.g. use something like ShortUrlApp or https://waelmohamed.wordpress.com/2013/06/10/create-unique-and-shorten-sharepoint-urls-even-the-document-moved-using-sharepoint-document-id/ ); or
on the Portal side of things run a jQuery over the column and change the url to an Anchor; or
Build a custom Enity List using Liquid and Fetchxml - you may be able to then change the fields liquid Filter (the current filter shows the html) or you can format how you want using Liquid
