Creating a Hyperlink in the Send as Attachment Email

KaitlynB

I have created a schedule to send my sheet to individuals each week (see above), but would love to include a hyperlink to the sheet in my email. I know hyperlinks are included if I create a workflow for this, but can I add a hyperlink if sending this way as well?

HI @KaitlynB

It seems there is no option to create a hyperlink in the "Send as attachment" message.

For long URLs, we can use a URL shortener to make them more manageable.

Bit.ly is a good option. For example, the long sheet url below has been shortened:

Original link https://app.smartsheet.com/sheets/Jhpm44QqJwP8m3gxjM9wPRRhcj8rRqC44GM3Cw51?view=grid

Shortened link : https://bit.ly/theodoitaisan

Hi,

I hope you're well and safe!

Unfortunately, it's not possible now, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit this as a Product Feedback or Idea (If it hasn't been added already) when you have a moment.

Here's a possible workaround or workarounds

- Use a URL-shortening service. EDIT: As suggested by Gia.


Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Best,
