Hi,

I need to display properly a set of Links to Sharepoint documents. I am storing the multiple links in a Sharepoint List Column of type Multiple Lines Of Text.

This is how they are shown in PowerApps Multiline Textbox control.

I would need to display something like:

Sample 1.pdf

Sample 2.pdf

.....

Any help how I can go about this?

Created a simple POC for your requirement.

SharePoint list:

AttachmentLinks : Multiline text field. Did not enable Rich Text.

Used a Html Text input control to display the value and set the following formula in the Text property:

Substitute(ThisItem.AttachmentLinks,";","<br>")

If you are using Multiline text field with Rich Text property:

Use a Html Text Input control to display the value and set the following formula in the Text property:

ThisItem.AttachmentLinks

Note: You should insert the links in the Multiline text field with breaks.
