To create a hyperlink in an email template, do the following.
Navigation
- In AgilePoint Envision, open a process template.
- Drag any AgileWork, and drop it on the Process Model.
- To view the entire list of properties, in the Design Tasks pane, click Show Properties.
- In one of the following fields, click Add Mail Template.
The specific fields that display vary, depending upon the AgileShape
you are using:
- Activity Entry Message (Email)
- Reminder Message (Email)
- Task Completed Message (Email)
- Task Reassigned Message (Email)
- On the Email Template Wizard, do one of the following:
- To modify an existing email template, in the
Name list, select the name of the template you want to modify.
- To create a new email template:
- Click New.
- On the New Name window, enter the name you want to identify your email
template.
- Click OK.
Instructions
- On the Email Template Wizard window, select the text you want to be
hyperlink.
- Click the Hyperlink button.
- On the Hyperlink window, you want to complete the following fields as required:
| Field Name |
Definition |
Type
|
- Definition:
- Specifies the protocol type.
- Allowed Values:
-
- Default Value:
- http:
|
URL
|
- Definition:
- Specifies your URL.
- Allowed Values:
- A valid URL.
- If you are using a custom attribute to store your URL,
it is recommended that you do not store the protocol, or Type, within the custom attribute.
Instead, use the Type field to define the protocol, and the custom attribute to
represent the remainder of the URL.
If you do not follow this best practice,
and you have a custom attribute with a URL that includes the protocol, in
certain cases the default Type prefix about: is added automatically when the
URL is modified. In this situation, if you modify the URL, you must manually
remove the about: prefix.

- Default Value:
- http://
- Custom Attributes:
- Yes
- Example:
-
- http://agilepoint.com
- http://${MyServer}/
