Hi Folks,

Is there a way to post in Teams through a Flow, a clickable URL to a document that resides in SharePoint?

Hello @trishmalloy
Yes there is!
You can use the Team action "Post a message" and add the Link to item value from the document.
Suggest you to use HTML to enter an anchor element with href="Link to item".
I found that the link button in the Message field is not really useful 🙂

Hope this helps you on the way.
Kind regards, John

It doesn't look like you're using HTML from the screen shot you posted?

This is how I have things set up. The URL is posted in Teams, it's just not clickable.

Hello @trishmalloy
Yes, in my screenshot I did not use a link. I hoped you would use the marked HTML button "</>" to try it yourself 🙂
This is the screenshot where I changed it into a link.
Kind regards, John

Hello @trishmalloy
Works perfectly for me!
Please ensure that you have chosen the Channel from the list and not just entered a custom value!
Kind regards, John
