Hi, I am having troubling coaxing the editor of a text field into tranforming a URL into a clickable link.
The following is an example of such a link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgxSvFoQ59k
Apparently it will briefly recognize it as a URL (the text will be rendered bold), but in the end it is stored as normal text, i.e. like so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAqAtI6K7NY&feature=youtu.be forcing the reader to copy / paste the URL to a browser to actually open it.
Is there some way to force a string to be recognized as a URL?

Ahh your using a template that looks to be using the old Teams action. Might have to start blank and create one, cause the Team action is called something like "Post to Teams channel" that shows at "Post message" in screenshot or something, I think it's updated to use HTML with that one. might explain why mine is working and yours isn't.

Ok, thanks, I'll try that!

@Deleted, this does not work with Planner. I tried your suggestion and wrapped the "Link to item"-property like this:
In planner it comes out as plain text. Any ideas on how to solve this?

For it did its job with transforming the plain text to a hyperlink but I would expect that Flow would embed the video and not just hyperlinking.
Does anyone know if this is planned?
THanks

@Darya Valchonak This situation is quite frustrating as more than 50% of my team's messages contain url-s. I don't know why Microsoft has done nothing to solve this in the last 3 years since the problem was initially reported.
Our internal urls (eg: http://demo.project.companyname ) never get recognized and we always have to copy paste it into the browser. Please let me know if you have anything under development or on roadmap as future development.
I am waiting for your reply, I am the only one supporting your application, the rest of my team supports slack so if nothing changes we might have to switch to it.

I have the same Problem. It is still not working.
I think, it is a problem with the contentType, which should be 1 instead of html

Hallo Microsoft,
please start using "Trello" - there you can see it.
It could work.
Please also make it happen.
Thank you
and best regards

@quinfe and all in this thread. I see here that this thread has been open for some time. This is an issue with the Flow connector so I have posted internally to that team to see what's going on. I can repo the issue FWIW. Thank you for your patience.
