You have to escape the | character. It is being parsed as a table cell.

OH DUH that explains it!!

However when trying that out (escaping with ), it seems to completely ignore the link option, and instead uses the default behavior of grabbing a random block from the tag.

This is my table

| dice: 1d4 | Connections                                         |
| --------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| 1         | They are associated with `dice: #dnd/factions\|link` |
| 2         | They're from `dice: #dnd/pc\|link`'s past            |
| 3         | They know `dice: #dnd/pc\|link`                      |
| 4         | They know `dice: #dnd/npc\|link`                     |
^connections

I also tried putting a space between the tag and the \|link to no avail.

Am I supposed to use a different escape character? I'm probably making another formatting mistake 😅

Edit: forgot to take a screenshot

can you please try 7.4.1

I just tried and!! it works in the table itself but when trying to roll from it it displays a malformed result

The code :

| dice: 1d4 | Connections                                         |
| --------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| 1         | They are associated with `dice: #dnd/factions\|link` |
| 2         | They're from `dice: #dnd/pc\|link`'s past            |
| 3         | They know `dice: #dnd/pc\|link`                      |
| 4         | They know `dice: #dnd/npc\|link`                     |
^connections

`dice: [[NPC Dice Tables#^connections]]`

Okay, I figured out why this is breaking. However, in figuring that out, I also realized that what you're trying to do here won't actually work - the LinkRoller returns the file object, not the link path, so it won't render correctly in the table roller's result.

I will have to work on this a bit, it's a little tricky to get right.
