Updating a Hyperlink field (both url and description) using Flow?

I tried using the update item action to set a Hyperlink type column in my custom list. The Flow field for this column only accepts the url so there seems to be no way to add the description part. Any...

I was trying to get this to work and I keep running to the following error:

"The property '__metadata' does not exist on type 'SP.Data.AccountsListItem'. Make sure to only use property names that are defined by the type.\r\nclientRequestId: 2408701b-9fdd-49fc-8136-0d0a2244ce5d\r\nserviceRequestId: d614c79e-f0dd-8000-aa83-416edc2ce86f"

After a bit of searching around the best 'solution' I found was here: http://dinushaonline.blogspot.com/2014/09/resolve-property-does-not-exist-on-type.html

However, I have gone to the URL and copied out the "category term=" exactly.

So, I'm not sure what else could be the culprit.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Its not the "category term="

Look for the tag:

<d:ListItemEntityTypeFullName></d:ListItemEntityTypeFullName>

If that doesn't work, take a screenshot of your flow

Huh, I see several <d: entries, but none that say ListItemEntityTypeFullName, perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place. Attached is a screenshot of the flow. Thanks so much for your help.

  You need to browse to _api/web/lists/getbytitle('Accounts') to find that tag.
  
  Flow looks good. I don't see any issues there

    Well, good news/bad news. I browse to that URL and found the entry for ListItemEntityTypeFullName, but bad news it is the same one I was trying to use from before. So, if that is the correct FullName then I'm not sure what the deal is.
