Hyperlink within body of email

"Greetings,

App Link: <a href='app link'>Click Here</a>,

Org Chart Name: " & name.Text & "
Facility: " & facilityName.Selected.Value & "

Have you thought about using Power Automate to try to achieve this? I use a flow to create and HTML table to add to an email and each of the ID's in a link to that item in SP.

I am doing it for all SP items for a UserName that was passed to flow from PowerApps. Could do a similar thing with your case im sure and then you app could offload the process to MSFT servers and not have to do anything locally.

So, I'm not looking to send the email but rather open it up in outlook if the user wants to edit the email. Would that be possible in PA?

No, but it isn't a powerapps limitation it is an outlook one. Open your normal outlook and try typing a html link using href. It's not going to let you, you have to type a word, highlight it, then click link and set your link reference. or you can copy paste an existing one, but that is about it.

To let them edit it and send you would need to set something up where you have an HtmlText control with somethign like

"<a href=https://apps.powerapps.com/play/e/-4e30a73110f4/a/ab9bd127-5fcb-4483-aded-247e7e4f894d?tenantId=4f3-412d-933a-4e30a73110f4>Click Here</a><p>"&bodyDefault

and Set(bodyDefault, "default text" on the launch of the item, then have a textbox in there somewhere that has bodyDefault as its default setting and lets you edit it. you can then make the display / htmltext control show them their changes by adding and hiding a slider with a default of

Len(TextInput1.Text)

 and an onchange of

Set(bodyDefault, TextInput1.Text)

Or instead of displaying the whole html text at once, break it into display sections and let them edit eveyrthing freely, with the htmltext control compiling everything hidden from view, then calling on that html text control using the Office365Outlook.SendEmailV2( ) tool to send the email, as they have altered it, straight from powerapps.

*edited, one of my explanations seemed confusing on a second read through

I'll give that try, thanks
