how to get the value added as URL in Web links

Question

Hi,

I am trying to create a project automation that will send a notification to the Requester. How can the [Web Links URL](s) be embedded in the notification?

Notification looks like this so far:

Hi {{requester.displayName}}
We have started working on the issue
" {{issue.summary}} "
See [Web Links URL]

Okay, I get what you are trying to do now.

I am not aware of there being a smartvalue for that and even if one existed then i am not sure it would work as you intend it. Think of what would happen if someone where to add multiple links, then your formatting would be crap at best or not work at all at worst.

I think your best bet to do this is to create a custom url field in which you can add one link and use that.

That would also make it clearer for users to what that link should point.

Hi,

{{issue.url}} returns the link of the issue in Jira.

I am looking for the web link associated to the issue, In the example it is   https://translate.google.com/

Also, this does not appear in Smart values, already checked those.

Should be {{issue.url}}

You can find a list of Smart values here: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/smart-values-general/ they are used all over not just in Automation for Jira
