Sending mail from Confiform with mail.google.com being added to front of the result

[Stuart Wosika]

Hi guys,

I am successfully passing the result of a Create Page IFTT Integration rule into a field called Result of type HIDDEN HTML.  

entryId=[entry.id]&Result=<a href="https:/ikm.ilab.zone/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=${iftttResult_0.id}">${iftttResult_0.displayTitle}</a>

I then have another IFTT integration rule to Send Email.  

The mail is sent and a HTML entry is created in the mail body BUT the URL link is the following:

https://mail.google.com/ikm.ilab.zone/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=19958950

For some reason "mail.google.com" is being added to the front.  I am using gmail to send the mail.  Of course then the link to the new page then does not work.

I would like to display the URL as a link so that the person receiving the mail, can then just click the link to go directly to the right page.  

How can I stop this being added to the front of the URL please?

BR.

Stuart.

Hi Alex,

not quite what I want but I have found a workaround for the issue.  I have managed to create a valid HTML entry in the mail by:

1. Removing the a href reference and storing as a string https://.....................

2. Formatting the field value using formatLinks to turn into HTML entry in mail:

Page Formatted is [entry.Result.formatLinks]

OK, using ConfiForms virtual functions to build links is actually a better approach

Look at asLink function as well https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Virtual+functions

Hi

This is definitely not something what is added "silently" by ConfiForms

Something else is altering the links
