Calpendo User Documentation
The URL Button
This inserts a URL to your Calpendo. Sometimes, it is required to provide a link in an email
to a particular page. This can be done by putting the relevant page information after the main
URL. For example, if a Project 448 has been changed, then set up a link like this:
[URL]/#ba&type=Project&action=view&id=[NEW.id]
In this case, [URL] is replaced by the main URL, then #ba&type=Project&action=view
links to a page that is told to display Projects and not other Biskit types. Finally, the
&id=[NEW.id] specifies the identifier of the particular Project that was changed.
The easy way to work out how any URL like this should be formatted is to first go to the
relevant page and see what URL Calpendo uses, then replicate that within the Automatic
Email, replacing parts as appropriate with dynamic text.
It should be noted that it's not normally useful to insert a URL into an email's subject.
However, the same URL... button is also used for the content of an email (as discussed in
the next section).
