Any alternate function is there for GETLINK Function in Google sheets and Power BI?

I have one requirement like i have to extract the hyperlinks from the text column in Google sheet so using GETLINK with Appscript i have extracted the links and imported that file into Power BI. After Development when i do manual refresh it worked and added Auto refresh then it throws error like Unknown GETLINK Function. So is there any alternate Function which will work in both Google sheet and Power BI.
