Hey knowledgable folks!

I've been searching the internet for hours now without success.

I know how I can embed a link to a Trello card in an email send with Butler, using the variable {cardlink}. However, the link is just plain text when the email arrives. How do I turn it into a real, klickable link???

Html seems not to be supported. If I try using <a> tags they just display the way they are. Is there a trick or is that not possible??

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @Silke ! Welcome to the community :) Trello uses markdown, so try adding:

[{cardname}]({cardlink})

This will generate a hyperlink like this: Test Card

Thank you @Hannah Humbert - Simpla Workflows ! I didn't know you can use the markdown in those mails, too. Splendid!

Hey @Hannah Humbert - Simpla Workflows ! 

I've tried to use 

[{cardname}]({cardlink})

and

[{mentiontext}]({mentionbacklink})


for an email notif being mentioned in a card comment, but it still only shows the card name in plain text. Is there anything that could be interfering with this?

@Hannah Humbert - Simpla Workflows Sorry nevermind, yahoo mail was the issue :)
