I am trying to create a flow that uses the 'send http request to SharePoint' step to create an event on the Events calendar for a SharePoint site. I need to include a hyperlink in the Description property of the event that is created. Below is my json. Can someone point me in the right direction for the url portion?

{
"__metadata": {
"type": "SP.Data.EventsItem"
},
"fAllDayEvent": "false",
"EventDate": "@{body('Convert_time_-_Start')}",
"EndDate": "@{body('Convert_time_-_End')}",
"Title": "Test Event from Flow: HH",
"Category": "Meeting",
"Description": "<a href=\"@{outputs('Compose')}\"</a>"
}

Hi @ahhollan

The description html tag is not properly formed, pls correct it as mentioned below:

"Description": "<a href=\"@{outputs('Compose')}\">Meeting link</a>"

If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.

Thanks

Thanks Would you have a suggestion how to add Link Address of the Meeting using Rest API?
I tried adding as another parameter while creating the item but does not seem to work (got Bad Request)

"status": 400,
"message": "The property 'Link' does not exist on type 'SP.Data.EventsItem'. Make sure to only use property names that are defined by the type.\r\nclientRequestId: c8549c1a-c69f-4b8a-a365-6d7d1e6366f9\r\nserviceRequestId: eb7af2a0-a0a4-4000-826c-b5c53cce57da",
"source":

My goal is to populate the field Link Address of the Meeting with the correct URL
