Is it possible to have text hyperlinked in an alert message?

Fania Kozareva

Hi there,

I want to make sure my alert emails look as neat as possible, but so far I have only been able to drop links in the alert message with the full URL text hyperlinked. It would be great if I could do something like this within an alert message:

Is this possible? I tried hyperlinking a cell with display text in the smartsheet and then referencing that in the alert message, but it only showed the display text.

Unfortunately, no, but it's still an excellent idea!

Hi @Fania Kozareva

I hope you're well and safe!

Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!

As a possible workaround, you could use a URL shortener service.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!

Is there an updated answer or any movement on the request?

I as well would like to send a message-only alert with the text formatting ability to add the full URL text hyperlinked.

Something similar to html. <a href= "https://website.url...."> Policy Information</a>
