Create clickable link to item in description field

Hi, I have created a Flow that sends a task to Planner when a SP-item is created. Now I need to include a clickable link to the SP-item in the Planner description field. How do I achieve this? ...

Microsoft Flow

SharePoint

I used the excellent article by Brian-Smith at https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/brismith/2017/10/23/microsoft-planner-a-change-management-solution-for-office-365/?utm_source=brismith&utm_medium=twitter

Pablo R. Ortiz, I´ve already tried this and it´s not working. The created Planner item is displaying the link as plain text. I need it to be a hyperlink.

    I tested without the href attribute, the Planner-task shows the following:
    
    <a>https://teknikhuset365.sharepoint.com/sites/demo-ims/_layouts/15/listform.aspx?PageType=4&ListId=67c353a4-e76f-42c2-8a66-f39abaa6f88a&ID=18&ContentTypeID=0x01030041C6FA5F89DC7840978F3E911F06EAFB0052F1CFB9ED08744986C2788B0A28F88A</a>
    
    It doesn´t seem like the Description-field of the Planner task supports HTML... If I manually add a link in the Planner-task, it will not automatically convert it to a link. This is not good...
