Examples

// Link to full sample: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OfficeDev/office-js-snippets/prod/samples/powerpoint/hyperlinks/manage-hyperlinks.yaml

// Gets the hyperlinks found in the first selected slide.
await PowerPoint.run(async (context) => {
  const slide: PowerPoint.Slide = context.presentation.getSelectedSlides().getItemAt(0);
  const hyperlinks: PowerPoint.HyperlinkCollection = slide.hyperlinks.load("address,screenTip");
  const hyperlinksCount = hyperlinks.getCount();
  await context.sync();

  console.log(`${hyperlinksCount.value} hyperlinks found in first selected slide:`);
  for (let link of hyperlinks.items) {
    console.log(`Address: "${link.address}" (Screen tip: "${link.screenTip}")`);
  }
});

Properties

address

Specifies the address of the hyperlink, which can be a URL, a file name or file path, or an email address with the mailto URI scheme.

context

The request context associated with the object. This connects the add-in's process to the Office host application's process.

screenTip

Specifies the string displayed when hovering over the hyperlink.

type

Returns the type of object that the hyperlink is applied to. See PowerPoint.HyperlinkType for details.

Methods

delete()

Deletes the hyperlink.

getLinkedShapeOrNullObject()

Returns the PowerPoint.Shape object that the hyperlink is applied to. If the hyperlink is not of type shape, or it is within a domain that does not currently support a PowerPoint.Shape, then this method returns an object with its isNullObject property set to true. For further information, see *OrNullObject methods and properties.

getLinkedTextRangeOrNullObject()

Returns the PowerPoint.TextRange object that the hyperlink is applied to. If the hyperlink is not of type textRange, or it is within a domain that does not currently support a PowerPoint.TextRange, then this method returns an object with its isNullObject property set to true. For further information, see *OrNullObject methods and properties.

load(options)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNames)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNamesAndPaths)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

toJSON()

Overrides the JavaScript toJSON() method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify(). (JSON.stringify, in turn, calls the toJSON method of the object that's passed to it.) Whereas the original PowerPoint.Hyperlink object is an API object, the toJSON method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as PowerPoint.Interfaces.HyperlinkData) that contains shallow copies of any loaded child properties from the original object.

Specifies the address of the hyperlink, which can be a URL, a file name or file path, or an email address with the mailto URI scheme.
