This video has all of the things. We explore the SharePoint Hyperlink or Picture field. How can you update it (hint, only possible sometimes in Power Apps), how you can read the description (hint: Power Apps cannot), and how Power Automate flow and the Rest API is the only way. This video finally explain all of the nuances of this handy but annoying little field. We have gallery, form, patch, flow, parse JSON, and SharePoint HTTP action all included in an action packed video. I hope you enjoy. Oh yeah, and we do some fun troubleshooting for Nulls with parse JSON.
