Hyperlinks in Story Maps

[JosephHupy]

I am currently trying to develop a story map with links and, as always, what is demonstrated at the UC is not what the reality of the situation portrays. Here are the issues:
1) If I have an images folder that I created within my organization ESRI account, then why can't I provide an url to them? This seems odd that I can do this via story map, but then have no link to them otherwise....
2) Am I missing some crucial piece of information when it comes to providing an url to a website or video within the description? For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to create a hyperlink. I tried doing this in the online map creation, and within the story map, and cannot figure out how to insert a hyperlink. My next step is to try within a CSV, but even then I am having issues.

Let me add to this: I want to add a csv with links to the images, but want to use the esri online area to host them. I am wondering how I could link to these images from within a folder in 'my content'. Yes, I am part of an organization and so have the ability to host these images online.

Joseph,

Did you try and add a field to your data called LINK and write the html code in there?

I did this for pictures and it worked.

You might have to host them elsewhere though :confused:

Let me know if it works.
