I have noticed that some story maps have hyperlinks within the description field.

My story map uses a feature service from our ArcGIS server.  So how is it possible to create a hyperlink within a text field (the description field) in a feature class that is the service is using so that it shows up in the description for the story map?

Whatever the type of your data source, you can use HTML tags in all editable fields of a Map Tour.

So you have to know the basics of HTML to create a link.
The Help Tips guide you in creating a link, see attached image (we will include a friendly editor in the future).

Note that when you are using a Feature Service, depending on the server version and it's configuration, the supported HTML tags may be restricted to those listed here.
