Updating SharePoint Hyperlink column with description

Hi @jpmhuls,

Does this post help with this issue?

That's odd, it should just work with variables in there as well. I’m not sure exactly how your workflow looks like, but what works for me is to use a single-line of text variable for the entire thing. I use a "Build String” action to build it up, and use the {TextStart} and {TextEnd} wrappers in the Build String action like in the linked post, then write the result from the Build String to a single-line text variable, and then assign that single-line text variable to the hyperlink column with a simple “update field” action.

Some things to take note of in italics:

Build the string like {TextStart}url goes here{TextEnd},put the space here after the comma{TextStart}displayed text goes here{TextEnd}

If you forget the space, or put the space inside the {TextStart}{TextEnd} wrappers, you can get weird results, so put it outside of the wrappers in the build string action. You can reference variables or item properties inside the wrappers just fine, Build String just pastes them in.
