HREF in Automated Emails

Hi.

I am trying to change the content in the email to be "Click Here for Web Form" as the url is for a form with prefilled files in the form, which makes the URL quite long, but some email clients dont recognise it as a full url.

Looking at trying to do similar to HTML where the below:

<p><a href="google.com">Click Here</a></p>

However it doesnt accept HTML, is there a workaround for this? It is a different URL for the list, that is why I am looking at a formula instead of creating the hyperlink.

Hey @J Tech

To shorten some of the lengthy URLs I've used one of the free websites that allow you to convert a long url into a short url of your choice - something like TinyURL.com

Will this work for you?

Hi @Kelly Moore,

Because of the volume of links needed, would like to just do a text instead of shortened URLS

Could you leverage Outlook Rules and/or PowerAutomate? I have a few instances where I use Powerautomate to have smartsheet emails 'skip' through my inbox. Typically I'm doing this when I either want a definite record of an email (eg Invoicing) or, I want the email address to reflect my corporate email domain and not a reference to smartsheet. However when I do this, I am sending the email to either a designated recipient or static distribution list and not to dynamic user names. Depending on your use case this may or may not work for you.
