Embedding HTML code in Power Automate table

Question

I have a Power Automate flow that uses the "Create HTML Table" function as one of its steps. One of the fields in the table is a URL address. The latter can be quite long and makes the display of the table in the email to which it is sent quite crowded. The link appears as the full address. I would prefer to have a label displayed so that when it's clicked the reader gets sent to the underlying link. I know how to create a labeled link in a regular HTML page. However, I'm trying various ways to embed the labeled URL into the table created by Create HTML Table. For example, I've something like this: <a href="https://google.com">Click for Google</a>. The table that is generated shows the link but ignores the label section.

Any advice?

Hi @Nestor Holynskyj ,

The key is that ‘<’ and so on are reserved characters in HTML, they are escaped as text, so they cannot be recognized. Finally I solved this issue by using expression replace(replace(replace(body('Create_HTML_table'),'&lt;','<'),'&quot;','"'),'&gt;','>') here:

An email I got from above flow:
