How can I change the display text of a hyperlink in the body of an automated Request an update email

As it is now, I copied and pasted the link for users into the email. When I right click on the link I do not have the option to to edit the link text. I want to change it to "Click here to edit the weekly agenda" instead of the full link text.

    I have tried this every which way and been unsuccessful.

    The email message body does not let you enter rich text, so you can't use display text on hyperlinks. You can't do it by putting the URL into a data column either.

  • I agree with David, I need to have the same ability he describes. Jeff's links have nothing to do with being able to add an HTML link to words you typed in the automation emails / request an update email blast that goes out to users. How are we able to get this done? The system for these email blasts seems very antiquated with all of the capabilities in smartsheet these seems like a very simple fix if they would allow RICH text or HTML embedding into words of our email templates.
