Simple question from a beginner (about Links to outlook, teams and browser)

Greetings,

 

I'm making my first steps in powerapps and tried creating an app out of an excel-sheet. so far so good, it looks nice, I got my scrollable browsergallery about all my business partners with email-adresses, telephonenumbers and website. When I click on an item, I get over to the details-screen. I like it, but I would love it to have the email-adress, the phonenumber and the website (which it automatically got from the excel sheet) to have it in form of a hyperlink like in a the edge browser. I tried to add the "HTML-Text" and the corresponding text is there, but it's not clickable. Did I miss something? I tried it on both, the browser gallery and the details-screen. I think it's a simple problem, rigth?

 

Greetings from germany,

Doc

    Hello @DoctorJaegerX42 

     

    You got a pretty starter app there. As for your question, you have to use HTML for this.

     

    Just want to iterate that you have to use HTML Text control for this and put them in <a> </a> tag to make them clickable.

    For the website, do this:

    "<a href=""" & ThisItem.'Webseite Allgemein' & """>" & ThisItem.'Webseite Allgemein' & "</a>"

     

    For Phone numbers

    "<a href=""tel:" & ThisItem.Telefon & """>" & ThisItem.Telefon & "</a>"

     

    For email address, do this:

    "<a href=""mailto:" & ThisItem.'Email-Adresse fur Angebotsanfragen' & """>" & ThisItem.'Email-Adresse fur Angebotsanfragen' & "</a>"

    Thank you so much, works like a charm. Fun fact: I copy & pasted the formula for the email adress but obviously you don't have the german ü 😉 I struggled to find the error but got it now 🙂
