Are there any way to display the buttons with link using html tags.

Hi @rajeev.saraf!

If wanting to provide buttons, you would use the Notify expression to send the user a static card with buttons, where each button is tied to a Content Activity, System Action, or Conversational Process.

In your case, configure an action button as a Content Activity and set its message to your target URL.

@rgeroulo Thanks for the response, If I understood you correctly → the link can be dynamic, with definite set of button?

@rajeev.saraf yes, the link can be dynamic as seen below. This link can be served from a string slot, as seen in this example where

data.my_variable = “https://www.google.com”

@rgeroulo - I found the link is not always working, sometime it ask user to click on a generated link.

@rajeev.saraf if you want to format the link use RENDER() such as:

RENDER():
  args:
    link: data.my_link_variable
  template: "To do what you need to do, please [Click here]({{link}})"

Hi @Kevin Mok, @rgeroulo

The root cause was identified as a character limit constraint rather than a URL generation error. While the URL is constructed correctly, exceeding the supported character threshold prevents the expected pop-up from appearing, incorrectly triggering a user prompt instead.

question - is it possible to make the URL tiny within the planform the way it works for all the other Moveworks generated URL.

Hey @rajeev.saraf - If you want to have a tiny URL, you may have to use your own service that shortens URLs because we don't have that exposed.
