Give weblink URLs a friendlier name in email within Workflow?

asked on July 19, 2022

Is there a way to change the text the appears in an email when inserting weblinks to something more friendly to the user?

 

For example, instead of:

http://fsstllf/WebLink/DocView.aspx?dbid=0&id=5395001

 

It would be:

Production Status Report - 20220105

 

That is, clicking the Production Status Report - 20220105 would go to the same place as the first URL.

 

One pitfall I can see is that the text will not be picked up as a link within the email, so if you have suggestions on how to force the text to appear as a hyperlink, that would be appreciated.

Yes, you can include HTML in workflow emails.

Something like this directly in the email body will work just fine.

<a href="%(Token)">Display Text</a>

However, if you enter the HTML in a token instead of typing it directly in the Workflow email, then you'll want to apply HTML formatting via the token editor so it doesn't add it as literal text.

For example,

%(EmailMessage#"HTML"#)
