Access Link Data on Shape from Formula

Hi @ReidCrandall , thanks for posting! Would you mind clarifying what you mean by ‘access data’ and elaborating on your intended outcome so we can provide some more specific guidance?

For example, are you wanting to obtain the link/URL in a shape’s data in order to add this as text label on another shape in your document? Do you want to make a specific change to shapes (e.g. fill color) through a conditional formatting rule which evaluates whether or not a link/URL is present in the shape’s data?  Or are you wanting to access this information and return it externally via our APIs?

Thanks for the quick response.

I want to do two different things:

1. I want to use a formula to see if there is a link to a different Lucidchart page or external URL so that I can have the shape show an icon with a rollover state that say that if you click on the shape it will take to another location with more information.
2. I want to be able to differentiate between whether the link is a Lucidchart page or an external URL so that I can denote on the shape whether the link takes you within Lucidchart or to an external page.

Does that clarify?
